Hazards of Indoor Air Pollution

Indoor pollutants are mainly divided into five types: formaldehyde, benzene, ammonia, TVOCs, and radon, of which formaldehyde ranks second on China's priority list of toxic chemicals for control, and has been identified by the World Health Organization as a carcinogenic and teratogenic substance.

Formaldehyde mainly comes from indoor building materials and homes, such as plywood, particle board, foam filler, wood flooring, wallpaper, paints, and coatings.

Indoor benzene pollution mainly comes from indoor decoration with paints, wood paints, adhesives, and a variety of organic solvents, the main component is benzene, including the toxicity of pure benzene and toluene, but also includes a slightly weaker toxicity of xylene.

Indoor sources of ammonia are: building construction, concrete added to contain urea antifreeze, which can release ammonia; indoor use of sheet metal products, some contain urea-formaldehyde resin adhesive, at room temperature conditions, the slow release of ammonia; originating from biological waste, such as feces, urine, human exhalation and perspiration, the release of ammonia.

TVOC is total volatile organic compounds and is a more serious kind of indoor air quality pollution, TVOC harm is very prominent, not only causes the body's immune level disorder, but affects the function of the central nervous system, causing dizziness, headache, drowsiness, weakness, chest tightness, and other symptoms; and affect the digestive system, loss of appetite, nausea, etc., and in serious cases, can damage the liver and hematopoietic system.

The sources of radon are natural radionuclides in the soil and rocks of building foundations, precipitation from building materials, indoor living water, and gas (coal, natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas).
