室內空氣檢測 Air Test

室內空氣檢測 Air Test 百度百科 - http://baike.baidu.com/view/1609820.htm

室內空氣檢測 Air Test 是一個新興的行業。它是針對室內裝飾裝修、家具添置引起的環境污染超標情況進行的分析、化驗的過程且出具國家權威認可(CMA)具有法律效力的檢測報告,根據檢測結果值我們可以判斷室內各項污染物質的濃度,並進行有針對的防控措施。

由於室內空氣污染物來源廣泛、種類繁多,各種污染物對人體的危害程度不同,並且在現代的建築設計中越來越考慮能源的有效利用,使室內與外界的通風換氣非常少,在這種情況下室內和室外就變成兩個相對不同的環境,因此室內空氣污染有其自身的特點,主要表現在以下幾個方面:

很多室內空氣污染物在短期內就可對人體產生極大的危害,而有的則潛伏期很長。通常情況下時間都在3-15年。比如放射性污染,潛伏期達幾十年之久。

室內環境是人們生活、工作的主要場所。人的一生中至少有一半的時間在室內度過,這樣長時間暴露在有污染的室內空氣環境中,污染物對人體的累積危害就更為嚴重。

室內空氣污染物種類繁多,有物理污染、化學污染、生物污染、放射性污染等。造成室內外空氣污染的污染物來源大致有以下幾類:一是降塵、粉塵、煙塵等顆粒物,這些顆粒物一般來自吸煙、農村用柴火燒飯和施工工地的二次揚塵等。二是二氧化硫、二氧化氮等化學污染物,這些空氣中的有害化學污染物主要來自於煤炭燃燒釋放出來的煙塵和汽車排放的尾氣等等,這些有害氣體會通過門窗進入室內。三是微生物污染物,比如說人們所熟知的SARS。

一個成年人每天呼吸大約2萬多次,吸入空氣達15~20立方米。因此,被污染了的空氣對人體健康有直接的影響。

中國城市居民占不到總人口的一半,但已有2.7億以上居民呼吸的空氣不達標。這一近於聳人聽聞的說法,來自經合組織(OECD)2007年7月17日宣布的《OECD中國環境績效評估》報告在人的一生中,至少有80%以上的時間是在室內環境中度過,僅有低於5%的時間在室外,而其余時間則處於兩者之間。而一些行動不便的人、老人、嬰兒等則可能有高達95%的時間在室內生活。故室內空氣質量的好壞對人體健康的關系就顯得更加密切更加重要。

凡是居住在室內空氣已被污染的人,他們的身體時刻都受著傷害。一般來說,慢性中毒很難被人們發現,更容易被人們所忽視,當危害、中毒症狀轉成病變時人體才有一定反應。

由於室內空氣污染物的種類復雜,濃度有時又比較低,因此對人體健康的影響是長期和慢性出現的。早期可出現眼干、嗜睡、記憶力減退等;長期暴露可出現嗓子疼痛、急性或慢性咽炎等,長久暴露在被污染的環境中將導致肺部和多器官疾病的產生。

部分劏房細菌含量不符指標

Air Test | https://hk.news.yahoo.com/部分劏房細菌含量不符指標-051000061.html

一項室內空氣質數研究發現,部分劏房的細菌含量不符合指標,可能影響健康。

浸大聯同世界綠色組織,在荃灣、旺角、觀塘及葵涌等多個地區,抽取20個劏房戶的室內細菌、真菌、空氣及灰塵樣本,進行分析。結果發現,部分劏房空氣的整體含菌量偏高。

其中有7個劏房戶的室內細菌含量不符合香港空氣質素指標,當中最嚴重個案,空氣中的總細菌含量,是過往類似研究數據的三倍。

調查機構指出,劏房戶內細菌含量較高,是由於住戶在污染環境下晾衫及濕毛巾,增加細菌滋生。機構建議住戶關窗,減少細菌入屋,又建議不要把被鋪蓋過枕頭,避免細菌滋生,並促請政府加強宣傳,舊樓要定期維修保養。

IAQ : The value of proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry

IAQ Air Test : http://www.spectroscopynow.com/details/ezine/146097efb61/Indoor-air-quality-The-value-of-proton-transfer-reaction-mass-spectrometry.html?tzcheck=1

Indoor air pollution
The versatility of the oft-forgotten technique proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry for indoor air applications has been demonstrated by European scientists who carried out five contrasting experiments, including the emission of volatiles from a laser printer and building board.

Indoor chemistry is vitally important to the health and welfare of workers and residents due to the myriad of airborne pollutants that can invade the space. They can originate from outdoors, as in the case of exhaust gases which enter via open doors and windows, as well as indoors where carpets, furnishings, machinery and building materials are all contributors.

Although many people with a knowledge of science would expect GC/MS to be used to detect and measure these pollutants indoors, a less well-known technique has been highly successful in this area. Proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry (PTR MS) can be performed at ambient air pressure and is only affected marginally by humidity. It functions by producing hydroxonium ions (H3O+) from water vapour in the air which react with the target compounds to produce protonated molecules for detection. In some cases, other ionising species, such as Xe+ or NO+, are employed.

The low proton affinity of H3O+ ions means that they do not react with the other major gases present in air but they do react with trace species, with readily attainable detection limits of ppt by volume. The proton transfer reaction is gentle, so that there is little fragmentation of the protonated species that are formed, giving simple spectra that are useful for determining the molecular masses of the volatile compounds.

PTR MS is gaining popularity in other areas too, like the analysis of human breath for markers of disease and studying the sensory properties and origins of food but a team of European scientists have carried out a number of experiments to illustrate its effectiveness and versatility for analysing pollutants in indoor air. Tobias Schripp and colleagues from Fraunhofer WKI, Braunschweig, Germany, and Lukas Maerk from IONICON Analytik GmbH, Innsbruck, Austria, who manufacture PTR instruments, shared their results in Indoor Air.

Watching paint dry
All of the experiments were carried out in environmental test chambers with H3O+ as the reagent ion and commercial PTR quadrupole of time-of-flight instruments. The target volatile compounds were quantified from a knowledge of the rate constants of the reactions with H3O+ and the reaction times.

In the first case, they followed the emission of triethylamine from four different paints after they were applied to glass plates. This amine is often added to paints to neutralise acids that are released during drying, but it has an unpleasant fishy aroma. The paints could be classified into strong and weak emitters from their emission curves, levelling off after various times up to 24 hours.

PTR MS is better than thermal desorption GC/MS, which introduces large margins of error as the emission profile changes during heating. It is also more accurate than methods like photoacoustic monitoring, which cannot distinguish between different volatiles.

Building materials
The emission of volatiles from a piece of oriented strand board was studied after a 24-hour equilibration period in parallel with GC/MS to assist with product identification. About 20 compounds were detected, including acetic acid, pentanal, benzaldehyde and α-pinene.

The TOF instrument can distinguish between ions of the same nominal molecular mass due to its higher resolving power. When combined with the selection of a panel of emitted compounds rather than the whole set, PTR MS can provide a rapid system for testing the boards to ensure compliance with industrial guidelines.

Another type of building material, gypsum boards, can be fabricated to inhibit the diffusion of volatile compounds from one side to the other or to act as buffers for organic compounds. The suitability of PTR MS for testing these properties was demonstrated in a double climate chamber with the diffusion of toluene from one side to the other through the board. The diffusion coefficient calculated from the results agreed with reported values.

Printing output and reference materials
Laser printers emit a mixture of ultrafine particles, and organic compounds, some of which interact with ozone to form secondary organic aerosols, which can cause health problems indoors. Here, styrene was targeted because it reacts with ozone, along with its by-product benzaldehyde, and their levels both increased sharply after the beginning of each printing phase.

A NIST foil reference material loaded with a known amount of toluene was the final example. In this case, an unexpected short peak appeared in the depletion curve due to a nearby heating source that was switched on briefly. After the source was switched off, the curve resumed its expected path, confirming that short-term aberrations need not necessarily affect PTR MS experiments in chambers.

These examples illustrate the range of indoor air investigations that PTR MS can assist but it is not all straightforward. Sometimes, as was shown, GC/MS is needed as back up for compound identification. In addition, the rate constants for the reaction with the ionising H3O+ species may be unknown, so calibration of the instrument is difficult. Nevertheless, it remains a valuable way to monitor the effects of many materials on indoor air quality.

珠江三角洲區域空氣監控網絡公布 2013年空氣質素報告

Air Test | http://www.info.gov.hk/gia/general/201404/30/P201404300493.htm

香港特區政府環境保護署(環保署)與廣東省環境保護廳今日(四月三十日)共同發布粵港珠江三角洲區域空氣監控網絡(監控網絡)二○一三年的監測結果報告。報告匯報了珠三角地區二○一三年四種主要空氣污染物(即二氧化硫、二氧化氮、臭氧和可吸入顆粒物)的監測結果。報告已載於環保署網頁(www.epd.gov.hk/epd/tc_chi/resources_pub/publications/m_report.html)和廣東省環境保護廳公眾網(www.gdep.gov.cn/)。

  監控網絡自二○○六年啟動至今,區域空氣質素指數值符合國家環境空氣質量二級水平(適用於一般生活區)的全年日數百分比由二○○六年的68%增至二○一三年的82%;而區內錄得的二氧化硫、二氧化氮及可吸入顆粒物的年均值,與二○○六年相比,分別下降62%、13%和15%,這趨勢與粵港兩地近年加大力度推行的大氣污染減排措施有密切關係。自二○○六年起的趨勢見附表。

  二○一三年珠江三角洲的區域空氣質量指數值符合國家環境空氣質量二級水平的全年日數百分比與二○一二年相若,分別為82%及84%。區內的二氧化硫和臭氧的年均值亦與二○一二年的水平相若;而二氧化氮及可吸入顆粒物則上升5%和13%,這與二○一三年一月與十二月份日照較強和風勢較弱等氣象因素有關,以致容易產生光化學污染和不利污染物擴散。

  香港近年實施的主要減排措施包括︰收緊發電廠的排放總量上限、為發電廠安裝脫硫及脫硝設施、收緊車輛排放標準及燃料標準至歐盟V期、收緊工商業用柴油的含硫量、為所有加油站安裝油氣回收系統,以及限制消費產品的揮發性有機化合物(VOC)含量等。此外,香港今年亦會推出新的減排措施,主要包括強制淘汰歐盟前期及歐盟I至III期的柴油商業車和提升本地供應船用輕柴油的質素。

  至於珠三角經濟區方面,近年實施的主要減排措施包括︰為大型火力發電廠安裝脫硫?硝設施及關停小火電機組,「十二五」前三年累計關停228.9萬千瓦;推動電廠及新型乾法水泥生產線降氮脫硝;淘汰高污染的水泥及鋼鐵廠;為加油站、油庫和油罐車改造油氣回收;對石化實施洩漏檢測與修復技術,減少VOC排放;淘汰高污染鍋爐和營運類「黃標車」;以及對鍋爐、水泥、傢俱、印刷、製鞋及表面塗裝(汽車製造)行業實施了新的大氣污染物排放標準。去年,珠三角經濟區推出了新的減排措施,包括劃定高污染燃料禁燃區、全面推行「黃標車」限行區、全面供應「粵IV」車用汽油及「國IV」柴油、收緊柴油車排放標準至「國IV」標準。

  香港在二○一三年三月發表《香港清新空氣藍圖》(《藍圖》),而廣東省亦在二○一四年二月公布《廣東省大氣污染防治行動方案(2014—2017年)》(《方案》),雙方分別提出了一系列改善空氣質素的措施,全方位地減少由海陸交通、發電和非路面流動機械等帶來的空氣污染。香港的《藍圖》及廣東的《方案》所提出的措施對改善珠三角空氣質素有積極作用,並有助達致雙方為珠三角地區訂定的二○一五年及二○二○年減排目標。粵港會繼續共同推動空氣污染的聯防聯治,進一步改善珠三角地區空氣質素。

  監控網絡是粵港環保合作的重要成果之一,它由十六個分布於整個珠江三角洲地區的空氣質量自動監測子站組成。其中十三個位於珠三角經濟區內,即廣州、深圳、珠海、佛山、中山、惠州、東莞、江門、肇慶、順德、惠陽、番禺及從化;而其餘三個則位於香港的荃灣、東涌及塔門。監控網絡由廣東省環境監測中心及環保署分別負責兩地監測子站的協調、管理和運作。

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Air Test

http://www.simpltek.com/site/products/indoorair.html

To run Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Air Test, order Part# ST9200IAQ.

HVAC and Environmental Professionals save 50% on Indoor Air Quality Tests

Test Kit Contents (Part# ST9200IAQ): Kit includes: 1 dry surface sampler- 1 sterile sponge, sponge rinse container, buffered rinse solution (50ml), 1 sterile glove; and 1 Micro Inspector Total Microbe test. Indoor Air Quality Test

Homes and Offices Can Breed "Bad Air"

Most people spend 90% of their time indoors. Indoor air quality plays a greater role in the health of people who spend most of their time indoors: the very young, the elderly and those who are chronically ill. Air inside homes, offices, schools and other buildings can be more polluted than outdoor air because heating, cooling and ventilation systems are common sources of bacterial growth.

A Simple Do-It-Yourself Test To Determine Your Indoor Air Quality (IAQ)

You can easily and inexpensively screen for potentially harmful bacteria and fungus inside your home or office by combining a sterile dry surface sampler with our patented Micro Inspector Total Microbe test.

Two Ways to Sample and Test for Bacterial Contamination in Your Air

1. Do-It-Yourself (DIY): Sample Air Filter

Air filters are designed to catch particles floating in the air. If not changed regularly, they become a breeding ground for bacteria by providing an ideal environment of warmth and moisture. Even when changed regularly, bacteria may form quickly and spread thoughout your home or office. To obtain a sample from your air filter, remove it from the circulation source (air conditioner, etc.) and use the dry surface sampler provided: pour rinse solution onto sponge, wipe sample “zone” on filter, place sponge back into it’s container, pour remaing solution into container, shake and pour contents into sample cup. Run Total Microbe test. Compare results to chart. Sample Air Filter

2. Do-It-Yourself (DIY): Sample Air Duct

Air ducts can become a breeding ground for bacteria and mold. To obtain a sample from your air duct and use the dry surface sampler provided: pour rinse solution onto sponge, wipe sample “zone” inside air duct or on duct vent, place sponge back into it’s container, pour remaing solution into container, shake and pour contents into sample cup. Run Total Microbe test. Compare results to chart.

居家空氣品質髒 醫師:空氣清淨機改善

http://n.yam.com/ebcnews/society/20140507/20140507276810.html

台灣目前已經有超過兩百萬人飽受氣喘困擾,專業醫師強調,除了在戶外盡量戴口罩減少空氣汙染,室內最好要用醫療級的清淨機,幫助阻隔微小過敏原,改善居家空氣品質。

這幾天都看得到太陽露臉,但是往遠處一看天空卻是霧茫茫的一片,我們都壟罩在污染的空氣中,長期下來對健康有一定的不良影響,氣喘衛教學會榮譽理事長徐世達醫師:「它是2.5微米的懸浮微粒,它不但可以深入到肺部可以深入到肺泡,還可以經由所謂的微血管的交換,而進入到所謂的血液循環,在家裡空氣也好不到哪裡去,居家打掃沒想到把灰塵細菌都掃了起來,甚至抖一抖枕頭裡面數不清的塵瞞反而更活耀,醫師強調居家的空氣調節設備不可少,最好還要找HEPA醫療級的空氣清新機

氣喘衛教學會榮譽理事長徐世達醫師:「所謂HEPA系統,就是裡面有類似N99的濾網,那這個濾網可以把空氣中的包括即使是SARS病毒,那麼小的微生物都可以給它過濾掉」,不是每一種清淨機都能對抗過敏原,家中有過敏體質的人更需要慎選,產品副理鄒曉芳:「這類的過濾網,其實它是利用一個很細的纖維然後來阻隔過敏原,也有一個除菌的需求的話,我們建議他把光觸媒跟紫外線打開」,台灣過敏疾病發生率居高不下,霾害來襲在戶外最好都戴口罩,在室內盡量使用清淨機,維持好的空氣品質。

空氣污染加劇環保署賴風勢


【太陽報專訊】https://hk.news.yahoo.com/空氣污染加劇環保署賴風勢-224506794.html

港府耗資巨額公帑改善空氣質素及室內空氣質素,但進度緩慢叫人擔憂。粵港政府昨發布二○一三年珠三角區域空氣監測數據,發現區內兩種主要污染物二氧化氮和可吸入顆粒物的年均值不跌反升,分別比一二年升半成和一成三。環境保護署解釋指,去年一月和十二月日照強、風勢弱,致較易產生光化學污染和不利污染物擴散,但環保團體批評港府「賴天賴地」,促港府加快推展改善空氣政策。

監控網絡由十六個分布在珠三角地區的空氣監測站組成,其中香港三個監測站包括東涌、塔門及荃灣,○六年起每年公布四種主要污染物的監測結果。最新報告指出,去年二氧化硫、二氧化氮及可吸入顆粒物的年均值,比○六年分別下跌六成二、一成三和一成五,但臭氧水平卻大升近一成三。若與一二年的數據比較,減排進度並不理想,其中二氧化硫及臭氧的年均值並無改善,二氧化氮及可吸入顆粒物更不跌反升。

環團憂減排難達標
另外,本港三個監測站去年臭氧超標時數分別達四小時、八十小時和八十二小時,即共一百六十六個小時;東涌及荃灣二氧化氮的超標日數分別達十日和六日,分別較一二年激增一倍和兩倍,位列珠三角首三個超標日數最多的地區。

環保團體「健康空氣行動」行政總裁鄺芯妍表示,粵港政府共同訂立的二○一五年減排目標即將屆滿,但本港空氣持續無改善,令人失望,憂慮本港或未能如期達標。她強調,二氧化氮、可吸入顆粒物源自船舶和路邊廢氣,促港府盡快對症下藥,例如啟德郵輪碼頭加快闢建岸電設施、中環德輔道中設行人及電車專用區等。
