This session focuses on the critical aspects of indoor air quality (IAQ) and its impact on health and well-being, presenting various methods, technologies, and guidelines to ensure healthier indoor environments. One presentation discusses the development of advanced odor evaluation methods for indoor environments and building materials in China, highlighting innovative approaches for assessing and mitigating unpleasant or harmful odors that can affect indoor air quality. Another contribution examines the role of indoor air quality in promoting health within confined environments, emphasizing the importance of adequate ventilation, pollutant control, and environmental design to ensure safe and healthy living and working spaces. Additionally, the session covers an international overview of reference guideline values for indoor air pollutants, addressing the challenges faced in maintaining IAQ standards globally. This discussion explores the various pollutants commonly found indoors, such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), particulate matter, and microbial contaminants, and the reference values set by different international organizations to manage these risks. Together, these presentations provide a comprehensive look at the latest developments and challenges in maintaining high IAQ standards, underlining the need for innovative solutions and harmonized guidelines to safeguard public health in indoor spaces. |
