Brief Description
This is the Study 2 of the project "Characterization and Measurement of Air Quality in Outdoor/Indoor Spaces".

This study will entail the following sequence of activities:

  1. Selection of project facilities for investigation
  2. Characterization of the ventilation system of selected facilities
  3. Characterization of the activities and/or processes in the selected facilities that may influence air quality
  4. Monitoring of thermal and air quality parameters in the selected facilities
  5. Recommend possible abatement measures if needed.
Parameters to be assessed:
  • Livestock - ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, bio-aerosols, VOCs
  • Biochar production - particulate matter, odor, VOCs
  • Organic fertilizer production - dust, odor, selected VOCs, bio-aerosols
  • Feed mill - dust, bio-aerosols, pest infestation
Frequency of Measurement
  • Twice per month for one year (24x)
Expected Output
Enhanced measurement on indoor and outdoor air quality
