Due to increasing interest in indoor air quality and demand controlled ventilation in buildings aiming at energy and cost saving, as well as health and comfort aspects, the objective of our work has been the development of a reliable, low cost tool for demand ventilation control. Based on a single microelectromechanical (MEMS) metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) gas sensor VOC detection as close as possible to perceived air quality and additionally, a good correlation with measured CO2 concentrations due to implementation of an empirical data evaluation algorithm has been achieved.
