Abstract
Indoor air quality is one of the major concerns in the modern environment since urban residents spend 80–90% of their time staying indoors. Pollutant exposure could be relatively higher indoors due to the increased number of sources along with activities that cause re-suspension of pollutants back into the air stream. Several existing and emerging technologies for indoor particulate matter (PM) control are available; however, there is a lack of a comprehensive review of these technologies for the end-users. Therefore, current study presents a techno-commercial comparison of the existing indoor air pollution control technologies based on several metrics such as particle removal efficiency, cost-commercialization, energy consumption, and by-product emission. Additionally, recent advancements and applications of the aforementioned technologies in real indoor environments have also been reviewed. The study suggests that for efficient particle removal, either high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters or ESP should be preferred. Likewise, for the removal of multiple pollutants like particles, gases and volatile organic compounds simultaneously, emerging technologies can be integrated with pre- or post-stages of conventional technologies. The cost performance index is lowest for HEPA filters and ESP, indicating that they provide a better value for money in terms of performance. Ionization based and emerging PM control technologies should be avoided in case of sensitive populations due to health concern associated with emission of hazardous by-products.
期刊介绍：
ASE is an international journal that publishes high-quality papers, communications, and discussion that advance aerosol science and engineering. Acceptable article forms include original research papers, review articles, letters, commentaries, news and views, research highlights, editorials, correspondence, and new-direction columns. ASE emphasizes the application of aerosol technology to both environmental and technical issues, and it provides a platform not only for basic research but also for industrial interests. We encourage scientists and researchers to submit papers that will advance our knowledge of aerosols and highlight new approaches for aerosol studies and new technologies for pollution control. ASE promotes cutting-edge studies of aerosol science and state-of-art instrumentation, but it is not limited to academic topics and instead aims to bridge the gap between basic science and industrial applications. ASE accepts papers covering a broad range of aerosol-related topics, including aerosol physical and chemical properties, composition, formation, transport and deposition, numerical simulation of air pollution incidents, chemical processes in the atmosphere, aerosol control technologies and industrial applications. In addition, ASE welcomes papers involving new and advanced methods and technologies that focus on aerosol pollution, sampling and analysis, including the invention and development of instrumentation, nanoparticle formation, nano technology, indoor and outdoor air quality monitoring, air pollution control, and air pollution remediation and feasibility assessments.
