Natural basement ventilation has always been recommended as a means of reducing radon levels in houses. However, its efficacy has never been documented. In these experiments, natural ventilation has for the first time been studied systematically in two research houses during both the summer cooling season and the winter heating season. Ventilation rates, environmental and house operating parameters, as well as radon levels, have been monitored.It can be definitively concluded from radon entry rate calculations that natural ventilation can reduce radon levels two ways. The first is by simple dilution. The second is by reducing basement depressurization and thus the amount of radon-contaminated soil gas drawn into the structure.Therefore, basement ventilation can be an effective mitigation strategy under some circumstances. It might be especially useful in houses with low radon concentrations (of the order of 370 Bq m −1) or those with low levels and which cannot be mitigated cost-effectively with conventional technology.  相似文献

Measurements of indoor radon concentrations in the village Umhausen (2600 inhabitants, Ötztal valley, Tyrol, Austria) revealed unusually high indoor radon concentrations up to 274,000 Bq m−3. The medians measured on the basements were 3750 Bq m−3 in winter and 361 Bq m−3 in summer, those on the ground floors were 1180 Bq m−3 and 210 Bq m−3, respectively. Seventy-one per cent of the houses showed basement radon concentrations above the Austrian action level of 400 Bq m−3 in winter, 33% in summer. There are indications that the high radon concentrations are due to a giant rock slide about 8700 years ago. The unusually high radon concentrations in Umhausen coincide with a statistically significant increase in lung cancer mortality. For the period 1970–1991 the age and sex standardized mortality rate is 3.85 (95% confidence interval: 2.9 to 5.1). The control population is the total population of Tyrol (630,000 inhabitants).  相似文献

Continuous measurements of radon have been made at an altitude of 3400 m at the Mauna Loa Observatory, Hawaii. Concentrations ranged from about 20 to more than 700 mBq m−3. These were similar to values at remote Macquarie I., some 2000 km south of Australia in the Southern Ocean. At Mauna Loa, the radon concentrations could usually be separated into free tropospheric and island influenced categories on the basis of local meteorological observations. On one occasion a long range transport event from Asia brought relatively high radon concentrations to Mauna Loa and persisted for several days. The Asian origin of this event was supported by wind trajectories. This measurement program demonstrates the value of radon data in evaluating air transport models and the influence of transport from distant continents on baseline atmospheric measurements.  相似文献

个旧地区环境中氡水平及其与地质特点的关系   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
为了研究个旧地区环境中氡的浓度及分布、运移规律,采用SSNTD方法,于1990-1992年间在个旧地区进行了氡的环境地质野外考察和土壤、居室内布点监测,共获479个数据。结果表明,尽管在个旧地区未发现铀、钍矿物,土壤氡水平普遍超过世界地壳土壤氡水平均值。居民室内氡水平均值高达471.9Bq·m-3,远高于我国部分省、市近年来所测氡水平值,位于断裂带的居室氡水平高于远离断裂带的居室。个旧地区室内氡夏季高,冬季低,与一些国内、外有关报道结果相反。氡水平与楼层高度呈正相关,顶层为底层的2.70倍。调查结果可能与个旧地区的环境地质因素有关。建议采取远离地质断裂带建房和防止上升气流逸入室内的防氡辐射进而防癌的措施。  相似文献

Human subjective reactions to indoor air pollution in the form of volatile organic compounds in five concentrations ⩽ mg m−3 were examined in a climate chamber under controlled conditions in a balanced experimental design. The reactions of 25 subjects were registered in two questionnaires containing 25 and six questions and on a linear analogue rating scale. Each subject was tested for one day including four runs in each of the five treatments of 50 min duration. Dose effects were found for perceived odour intensity at 3 mgm−3. Air quality, need for ventilation, irritation of eye and nose showed significant effect at 8 mg m−3. Significant reduced well being was reported at 25 mgm−3. The analyses indicated that lower threshold for some of these effects would have been found if more subjects or longer exposure-times had been used. Gender, age, occupational education and smoking habits were co-factors for many of the symptoms reported.  相似文献

Commonly used mathematical models of indoor radon decay product behavior are based on macroscopic mass-balances, often referred to as ‘uniformly-mixed models’. The uniformly-mixed model's applicability is limited by its inability to track the movement of pollutants from their sources to other areas within the enclosure, to permit spatial- or time-dependent sources, or to take proper account of interactions with macroscopic surfaces. Although the uniformly-mixed model parameterizes the deposition process as a constant volumetric removal rate, in reality the deposition process is actually a surface phenomenon and is strongly affected by environmental conditions.This paper describes the development of RADTRAN, a two-dimensional radon progeny transport model that begins with the differential conservation equations describing the motion of air and the transport of reactive pollutants, introduces appropriate boundary conditions to represent surface deposition, and then calculates the concentration distribution of radon progeny throughout the entire region of interest. Knowing the concentration gradient near the surface, a local mass-transfer coefficient (the deposition velocity) can be determined as a function of environmental conditions. RADTRAN simulations have been based on several flow conditions: buoyancy-driven recirculating enclosure flows, free and forced-convection boundary layer flows, and one-dimensional diffusion. Free progeny diffusivity, Df, and attachment rate, X, were varied over representative ranges. For these conditions, RADTRAN calculated free deposition velocities of uf = 0.014–0.079 cm s−1, for 218Po. RADTRAN predictions are compared to a range of experimental measurements. It was found that the predicted range of deposition velocities is in rough agreement with findings from experiments conducted in flow conditions similar to the simplified flows used in RADTRAN.  相似文献

The rate constants for the gas-phase reactions of sabinene and camphene, two monoterpenes emitted from vegetation, with OH and NO3 radicals and O3 have been determined at 296±2 K and one atmosphere total pressure of air. The OH and NO3 radical reaction rate constants were determined using relative rate techniques. Using rate constants of k(OH + isoprene) = 1.01 × 10−10 cm3 molecule−1 s−1, k(NO3 + trans-2-butene) = 3.87 × 10−13 cm3 molecule−1 s−1 and k(NO3 + 2-methyl-2-butene) = 9.33 × 10−12 cm3 molecule−1 s−1, the following OH and NO3 radical reaction rate constants (in cm3 molecule−1 s−1 were obtained: OH radical reaction; sabinene, 1.17 × 10−10 and camphene, 5.33 × 10−11; NO3 radical reaction; sabinene, 1.01 × 10−11, and camphene, 6.54 × 10−13. The absolute O3 reaction rate constants determined were (in cm3 molecule−1 s−1 units): sabinene, 8.07 × 10−17, and camphene, 9.0 × 10−19. These rate constants are compared to literature data for other structural-related alkenes and monoterpenes.  相似文献

This paper reports seasonal and spatial variations in the ambient air concentration of nitrogen dioxide throughout the State of Bahrain, from February to December 1992. Monitoring sites were chosen to include urban areas with high traffic density, suburban areas with low traffic density, commercial and industrial areas. Correlations between meteorological parameters and mean NO2 concentrations were analysed, and NO2 levels were only significantly correlated with temperature (r = 0.63). Only February, a winter month, showed a significantly lower concentration of NO2 with an overall mean value of 23 μgm−3, whereas in August, a summer month, it was 33 μgm−3. The results revealed that in a hot region like Bahrain, NO2 concentrations do not show significant monthly variations. Also summer-averaged NO2 values exceeded corresponding spring and winter values. In cold regions opposite patterns were observed. Moreover, the results revealed significant spatial variations in NO2 concentrations. In suburban areas with low traffic density, the overall mean NO2 level was 15, with a range of 12–17 μg m−3, while in urban areas with high traffic density, the overall mean value was 52 with a range of 44–60 μg m−3. The mean NO2 value in industrial sites with low traffic density was 21 with a range of 14–27 μg m−3, whereas in the same areas near major roads, it was 32 with a range of 31–32 μg m−3. These results indicate that automobiles exhaust are the dominant source of NO2 in Bahrain. The highest NO2 levels were found in roads with high traffic density, which are narrow, with several traffic lights and roundabouts, suggesting the effect of road geometry on NO2 levels.  相似文献

A controlled experimental study of human reactions to a mixture of 22 volatile organic compounds often found in indoor air was performed in a climate chamber. Twenty-one healthy subjects were compared with a group of 14 subjects suffering from the ‘sick building syndrome’ (SBS subjects), i.e. having symptoms related to the indoor environment (irritated mucous membranes, headache, etc.) as defined by WHO in 1982. In groups of 4 these subjects were exposed during two successive periods to either 0 and 0 mg m−3, 25 and 0 mg m−3, or 0 and 25 mg m−3; 25 mg m−3 is equivalent to the highest concentrations expected in a new building. The study was double blinded, and a latin square design was used to balance out effects of day in the week and season. Both groups reacted subjectively to the air reporting worse odor, worse indoor air quality as defined by the subject, and more irritated mucous membranes in eye, throat and nose than in the clean environment. A tendency to a stronger response was seen among the SBS subjects. Objective measures indicated among others an exposure related reduction in lung function among SBS subjects. Both groups had an increased number of polymorphonuclear leucocytes in tear fluid as a result of exposure. This was not seen for nasal secretions. Psychological performance tests indicated an exposure related diminished ability to learn. In conclusion, the experiment indicates that exposure to volatile organic compounds in low concentrations as seen in new houses causes both subjective complaints and objective signs in normal healty subjects; but more so in subjects from the sick building syndrome.  相似文献

The degradation of particulate polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) on atmospheric soot particles in the presence of gas phase dinitrogen pentoxide (N2O5) was explored. Dilute diesel and wood soot particles containing PAH were reacted with∼10ppm of N2O5 in a 200 ℓ continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR). To provide a stable source of particles for reaction in the CSTR, diesel or wood soot particles were injected at night into a 25 m3 Teflon outdoor chamber. The large chamber served as a reservoir for the feed aerosol, and the aerosol could then be introduced at a constant flow rate into the CSTR. PAH-N2O5 heterogeneous rate constants for wood soot at 15°C ranged from2 × 10−18to5 × 10−18 cm3 molecules−1 s−1. For diesel soot the rate constants at 16°C were higher and ranged from5 × 10−18to30 × 10−18 cm3 molecules−1 s−1. Comparisons with other studies suggest that sunlight is the most important factor which influences PAH decay. This is followed by ozone, NO2, N2O5 and nitric acid. The rate constants of nitro-PAH formation from a parent PAH and N2O5 were of the order of1 × 10−19−1 × 10−18 molecules−1s−1. The uncertainty associated with all of these rate constants is± a factor of 3. Given, however, the small magnitude of the rate constants and the low levels of N2O5 present in the atmosphere, we concluded that PAH heterogeneous reactions with gas phase N2O5 degrade particle-bound PAH or to form nitro-PAH from PAH arenot very important. (Direct application of the specific rate constants derived in this study to ambient atmospheres should not be undertaken unless the ambient particle size distributions and chemical composition of the particles are similar to the ones reported in this study.)  相似文献

This paper gives the details of airborne levels of man-made mineral fibres (MMMF) found during installation of loft insulation in 12 dwellings. About 250 samples of air were collected and analyzed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM).Respirable fibre levels measured in static samples collected in the lofts during installation generally were < 0.1 f ml−1. In living spaces respirable fibre levels were< 0.006 f ml−1. Personal samples on the installers gave < 1 f ml−1, with the exception of a fine glass fibre blanket. A few selected samples were also analyzed by phase contrast optical microscopy (PCOM) which showed lower values than those recorded by TEM. Static gravimetric concentrations in the lofts were in the 0.3–6.5 mg m−3 range, and in the living spaces 0.11–0.44 mg m−3, but in both environments most of this dust was not MMMF.  相似文献

A programme of wind tunnel experiments has been carried out in which the resuspension of particulate material of four sizes (4, 10, 18 and 22 μm diameter) from concrete and grass surfaces has been studied. The importance of wind speed has been investigated and the time dependence of the resuspension rate has been evaluated for periods shortly after the onset of resuspension. The results indicate rapidly falling values of the resuspension rate which are approximately related to 1/time. The increase in the resuspension rate with increasing wind speed was most pronounced for large particles, leading to the conclusion that resuspension can be dominated by short-duration episodes which coincide with conditions that favour resuspension. Resuspension rates, averaged over approximately 1 h after the onset of conditions leading to resuspension, were in the range 1 × 10−6 to 5 × 10−6 s−1, at moderate wind speeds (less than 5 m s−1), with little difference between the grass and concrete surfaces. For high wind speeds (greater than 6.5 m s−1), several per cent of the total surface deposit of 22 μ diameter particles was removed from both the concrete and grass surfaces within 10 s of the onset of wind.  相似文献
