Health Risk Assessment and Vapor Intrusion: A Review and Australian Perspective

摘要: ABSTRACT Soil contamination by volatile hydrocarbons is of public health importance due to vapor intrusion and indoor inhalation exposures. These are assessed using measurement or predictive modeling need consider the key areas subsurface partitioning transport, dwelling ventilation, receptor dosimetry. While transport have been subject intensive international investigation, limited consideration has given latter. Building ventilation research developed multi-zone airflow contaminant dispersal models including AccuRate, an Australian model that examines natural modeling, roof sub-floor identifies geometry thermal factors on (the most sensitive variable) pollutant concentrations. Inhalation dosimetry received recent attention concerns over child susceptibility dose metrics. Research coupled computational fluid dynamics ...
