Indoor Radon Exposure in a University in Shanghai, China—A Field Study
With the improvement of people’s requirements for living environment, the impact of indoor radon on health has also received extensive attention. During the literature screening process, it was found that most of the studies focused on residential buildings, while indoor testing of schools and office buildings was lacking. Therefore, a university in Shanghai was selected as the research object of this experiment, and the distribution of radon concentration in the university was described in more detail. In this paper, taking a university in Shanghai as an example, the student dormitories, office buildings, and classrooms of the campus were selected for indoor testing. The average concentrations were 16.18 Bq/m3, 22.67 Bq/m3, and 12.55 Bq/m3, respectively. Due to different ventilation conditions, different floors, and climate Conditions also affect radon concentrations, indoor radon is positively correlated with indoor temperature, relative humidity, and CO2.
