IAQ 2016 Defining Indoor Air Quality: Policy, Standards and Best Practices Co-Organized by ASHRAE and AIVC

Indoor Air Quality in many parts of the world is impacted significantly by high population density and outdoor air pollution. This in turn means that strategies, such as ventilation, that may work in North America do not work as well in these locations. This session focuses on two such locations, urban environments in China and India. In both of these locations outdoor particulate matter levels can be more than an order of magnitude higher than in most of North America. This session will discuss the challenges in these locations as well as common solutions and how effective these solutions are.
