1. Moisture Buffering in the Indoor Environment
Abstract : Moisture buffering in the indoor environment is the ability, through absorption and desorption, of surface materials to attenuate the moisture variations of the indoor air. Moisture buffering plays an important role in understanding the risks for biological growth in surface materials in the indoor environment, e.g. READ MORE

2. Oxidation of terpenes in indoor environments : A study of influencing factors
Abstract : In this thesis the oxidation of monoterpenes by O3 and NO2 and factors that influenced the oxidation were studied. In the environment both ozone (O3) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) are present as oxidising gases, which causes sampling artefacts when using Tenax TA as an adsorbent to sample organic compounds in the air.

4. Determination and control of some pollutants in indoor environments
Abstract : Unsatisfactory indoor air quality (IAQ) may result from polluting emissions that are spread from building materials such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and/or microbial components or from various kinds of human activity such as smoking. Different methods are available to limit the exposure to unwanted pollutants and improve human wellbeing and health. READ MORE

5. User Perception of Climate in Hospital Wards. An Analysis of Thermal Climate and Air Humidity Demands
Abstract : There are very few studies on perceived climate in hospital environments. This study deals with hospital wards, the consequences of establishing requirements for air humidity in them, and the use of existing recommendations and guiding principles. Many variables affect people’s perception of the indoor environment. READ MORE
