Aerosol Characterization in the Indoor Environment
Smolík, Jiří ; Schwarz, Jaroslav ; Ždímal, Vladimír ; Dohányosová, Pavla
Aerosol behaviour in the indoor environment and relation to outdoor aerosols, including study of the influence of some indoor sources were studied using measurement of aerosol size distributions using SMPS, APS and BLPI. The size distribution of several elements and main ions were also studied.
The Urban Exposure Management Tool for Assessment of Exposure of Residents to Urban Air Pollution
Barták, M. ; Smolík, Jiří ; Dohányosová, Pavla
The Urban Exposure tool is a new software tool designed to enable governments and local authorities to model the exposure of residents to urban air pollution during all their daily activities, such as working, travelling or sleeping. The Urban Exposure tool is relevant for anyone with an interest in air quality and air quality management; environmental managers, planners, consultants and academics. Human exposure to particulate pollution is modelled in a variety of user specified environments and for a variety of activities. Scenarios are constructed using a simple to use Graphical User Interface, which allows the user to specify a range of parameters.
Chemical Composition of Indoor and Outdoor Aerosol in Prague Suburb
Smolík, Jiří ; Schwarz, Jaroslav ; Ždímal, Vladimír ; Lazaridis, M. ; Dohányosová, Pavla
Epidemical studies show higher concentration of aerosol particles in the air influencing negatively human health. Although majority of today’s population spends its time inside buildings, less attention was focused to study behavior and composition of indoor PM. Chemical composition of size resolved indoor/outdoor aerosol from campaign in November 2002 is presented in this work.
Behaviour of Indoor Aerosol during Common Home Activities
Smolík, Jiří ; Schwarz, Jaroslav ; Ždímal, Vladimír ; Lazaridis, M. ; Dohányosová, Pavla
The atmospheric pollution is one of the most important causes of health problems of today’s population. The effect of aerosol particles to human health wasn’t yet explored sufficiently. Current legislation (e.g. 86/2002 sb.) is based on standard methods and measuring techniques, and doesn’t reflect real health risks. Although most people spend 80-90% of their time indoors, regulations of PM pollution is aimed to measuring and lowering PM concentration outdoors.
The Effect of Various Activities on Indoor Particle Concentrations
Smolík, Jiří ; Ždímal, Vladimír ; Schwarz, Jaroslav
The contribution describes experimental study of effect of various activities at home (ccoking, venting, smoking, burning of candles or incentives) on indoor particle concentrations. Dynamics of individual size fractions in size range 3-20.000 nm is studied using system of instruments NanoSMPS, SMPS, and APS.
