Society

Different profiles could be included in this category within the K-HEALTHinAIR project.

Of course, individuals from general society (citizens) who are interested in IAQ topic, but also students, associations of patients and families suffering from diseases such as COPD, environmental organisations or indoor places workers.

The knowledge Sharing Module provides them useful information and practical guidelines to maintain and improve IAQ.

Resources

Different factors which can affect IAQ in our houses. Smokers.

In this K-pill, we make a simple analysis of smoking indoors in different parameters measuring the air quality. To do so, we use data from one week in three houses with different conditions.

Relative humidity indoors. Case of low relative humidity.

In this K-pill, we will see the impact of using plants, in fact a vertical garden, indoors in order to keep the relative humidity of the air in proper values in dry indoor environments.

The Effect of Plants on CO2 Concentration in Homes

In this K-pill, we aim to estimate the potential impact of plants on the concentration of CO2 in a house.

IAQ impacts on Health and Wellbeing

In this K-pill, we examine Indoor Air Quality impacts on health and wellbeing.

What’s polluting your indoor air? Exploring sources and determinants across Europe

The K-HEALTHinAIR project systematic review explores the sources and determinants of indoor air pollutants across various environments to identify the main sources and determinants of indoor air pollution in settings such as schools, homes, lecture halls, hospitals, public transports, retirement homes, and canteens.

The Impact of Cooking Systems on Indoor Air Quality

Even when smoke is not visible, gas cooking systems emit particulate matter and harmful gases, alongside the usual CO2 and water produced during combustion.

Understanding formaldehyde: mitigating risks for healthier indoor environments

Formaldehyde is a significant health concern due to its potential for causing respiratory issues and long-term effects such as cancer.
