Marć, Mariusz; Namieśnik, Jacek; Zabiegała, Bożena Small-scale passive emission chamber for screening studies on monoterpene emission flux from the surface of wood-based indoor elements Journal Article In: Science of The Total Environment, vol. 481, pp. 35 - 46, 2014, ISSN: 0048-9697. Abstract | Links | BibTeX | Tags: Emission flux, Indoor air quality, Monoterpenes, Small-scale passive emission chambers, Wood-based materials @article{MARC201435,Analysis of literature data published in the last few years leads to the conclusion that in the process of assessment of emission flux of organic compounds emitted from different types of equipment and finishing materials, new types of devices, among which small-scale passive emission chambers for the performance of in-situ research are designed and applied on a larger scale. These devices can be successfully used for the assessment of emission flux of organic compounds in any location of an apartment, with no interference with its normal exploitation. In the following article the possibility of application of a designed and constructed small-scale passive emission chamber for the evaluation of emission flux of organic compounds (mainly monoterpenes) emitted from the surface of wood-based material made of laminated chipboard has been presented. The emission chamber made from polished stainless steel of the inner volume of 3.65dm3 allows for the examination/assessment of emission flux from the surface of 452cm2. A diffusive passive sampler was installed inside of the small-scale chamber, which enables collecting samples of the analytes emitted from the examined surface of indoor material. The working time of the passive emission chamber equaled 300min. The results of preliminary studies show that, the constructed device can be successfully used for screening studies, related with the determination of emission flux of monoterpenes from any type of wood-based flat surface located indoors. |
