Finding F-1585
“The average emission rates of CO2, acetone and isoprene were lower (by a factor of ~1.2-1.4) for children under twelve compared to adults while for acetaldehyde emission rates were equivalent.”
Structure
- Source
- Bioeffluents (occupant emissions)
- Factor
- Volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
- Method
- Mass spectrometry
- Setting
- cinema auditorium, DE
- Study design
- measurement campaign in a cinema: volatile organic compounds emitted by seated audiences measured at high frequency with a proton-transfer-reaction time-of-flight mass spectrometer across multiple screenings of three films in a room flushed at a known rate, so that emission rates could be calculated for adults and for children (class 4)
- Effect
- ratio
- Caveat
- the compounds compared are carbon dioxide, acetone and isoprene; for acetaldehyde the study found the emission rates equivalent
