Features: This book can be used as a reference for management, research, and engineering technicians engaged in indoor air pollution control. It can also serve as a reference book for faculty and students of environmental engineering, building environment and equipment engineering, environmental science, and sanitary engineering at universities. The book focuses on indoor air pollution control technologies. It first elaborates on the types and sources of indoor air pollutants, the relationship between indoor air pollution and human health, as well as the causes and control strategies for indoor air pollution in China. Then, it comprehensively introduces indoor air pollution control technologies from the aspects of pollution source control, ventilation control, and purification control. This includes pollution source control methods for four representative indoor air pollutants such as formaldehyde, radon, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and asbestos; the principles of ventilation and air conditioning and their impact on indoor air quality; and indoor air purification technologies such as fiber filtration, electrostatic dust capture, adsorption, low-temperature plasma, photocatalysis, negative ions, and ozone. Finally, it briefly analyzes the main influencing factors, modes of influence, and mathematical expression methods of indoor air quality.
