Studies show that environmental conditions in schools are often inadequate, even in developed countries, and that they are frequently much worse than in office buildings.

Recommendable supply air rates for residential housing – A simulation study considering CO2 concentration, relative humidity, TVOC emissions and mould risk | 2015 | English | 10 pp
In an extensive simulation study using a multi-zone airflow and contaminant transport calculation software (CONTAM) recommendations for the supply air rates for residential housing were derived as input for the revision of the Austrian standard ÖN
Mechanical ventilation performance assessment in several office buildings by means of Big Data techniques | 2015 | English | 10 pp
Mechanical ventilation performance is a key issue related both to energy efficiency and indoor air quality.
Impact of staff posture on airborne particle distribution in an operating theatre equipped with ultraclean-zoned ventilation | 2015 | English | 6 pp
Airborne particles released from surgical team members are major sources of surgical site infections (SSIs).
Air curtain assisted range hoods are very customary in large industrial kitchens. They allow to increase the capture efficiency of the range hood while lowering the net exhaust flow rate.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) has traditionally been assumed innocuous at the typical levels indoors, and merely an indicator of metabolic emissions from humans (bioeffluents).
