Abstract |
Indoor air quality, especially in the modern office environment, is an important parameter in relation to the health and well being of those who occupy these office spaces. Volatile organic compounds or VOCs evaporate under the temperature and pressure conditions prevailing in indoor environments leading to their increased concentration indoors as compared to outdoors. Recent studies have recognized electronic equipment as prominent emitters of VOCs. Emission characterization for printers and photocopiers has established these equipment as potential contributors to VOC contamination indoors. Keywords - Volatile organic compounds (VOC), Electronic equipment, Office environment, Indoor air quality. | |||||||||
