An Emissions Barrier Stops Spread of Harmful Emissions from a Building into the Indoor Air
An emissions barrier was used in premises with indoor air complaints due to emissions from the buildings in question. The emissions comprised chlorophenols/chloroanisoles and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) from treated wood, volatile organic compounds (VOC) from PVC flooring and/or the glue used to paste the flooring onto a concrete slab, and radon from radium-containing aerated concrete. Attaching the barrier at the surfaces from where the emissions were spread (floor, walls, ceiling) resulted in a fresh and odour-free indoor air and a substantial decrease of the emissions. We conclude that using an emissions barrier in buildings may be an efficient way of restoring a pleasant and healthy indoor air.
