102-0347-00L | Air Quality and Health Impact | 3 KP | 2G | H. W. Schleibinger, J. Wang, P. Wick | |
Kurzbeschreibung | The air quality of both indoor and outdoor environments impacts the human health. Air pollution has been correlated to excess mortality and led to numerous air quality standards. This lecture covers indoor air pollutants, design of building air handling system, fundamentals of human respiratory system, toxicity and health impact of air pollutants, and personal protection. | ||||
Lernziel | The students learn to access the volatile emission spectrum from building material; detect, evaluate and refurbish mould damage; assess the benefits and potential risks of HVAC systems in terms of indoor air quality. The student will also understand the fundamentals of human respiratory system and causes of adverse health impact; analyze the mechanisms of different toxic effects; and select proper protection equipment against air pollutants. | ||||

Kurzbeschreibung | Air quality has direct effect on public health and life quality. Both gaseous and particulate pollutants affect the air quality. Aerosols, solid or liquid particles suspended in the air, play important roles in atmospheric sciences and air pollution. This course covers aerosol mechanical, optical and electrical properties, and measurement and control technologies. | ||||
Lernziel | The students understand the effects of airborne particulate and gaseous pollutants on air quality. The students gain fundamental knowledge on mechanics governing mechanical, optical and electrical properties of aerosols. Aerosol behaviors including diffusion, coagulation, condensation, charging and evaporation are discussed. The students understand basic principles to generate, sample, measure and control airborne particles. The students learn state-of-the-art instruments for air-borne particles from micrometer to nanometer size range. | ||||
Inhalt | Properties of Gases. Uniform Particle Motion. Particle Size Statistics. Straight-Line Acceleration and Curvilinear Particle Motion. Brownian Motion and Diffusion. Filtration. Aerosol Deposition in Respiratory System Sampling and Measurement of Concentration. Coagulation. Condensation and Evaporation. Electrical Properties. Optical Properties. Microscopic Measurement of Particle Size. Production of Test Aerosols. | ||||
