Improved estimation of chemical volatilization rates from drinking water to indoor air
Contaminated water can lead to the volatilization of chemicals to residential indoor air. However, previous research has focused on one source (showers), and has been limited to chemicals in which gas-phase resistance to mass transfer is of marginal significance. As a result, attempts to extrapolate chemical emissions from high-volatility chemicals to lower volatility chemicals, or to sources other than showers, have been difficult or impossible. In this article, a methodology is presented which is of value to those interested in improved tools for risk-based corrective action, human exposure to disinfection by-products and other water contaminants, or the general issue of human exposure to toxic chemicals through routine daily activities.
