Methodologies for evaluating sources of volatile organic chemicals (VOC) in homes
Abstract After a classification of sources of VOC into four groups (continuous and intermittent, regular and irregular) and of air sampling procedures according to the duration of sampling and the sampling mode (active and passive), three representative case-studies are presented to discuss how an appropriate combination of source-type and sampling procedure can lead to a source evaluation. One of the case-studies revealed that the results of emission rate measurements carried out in the laboratory can give erroneous predictions of the substance concentrations to be expected in practice. It is concluded that evaluating sources of VOC under general toxicological and public health aspects calls for an intensive statistical treatment of measurements and questionnaires obtained from a very large number of homes.
