Development of Novel Assessments for Indoor Air Quality Monitoring and Impact on Children's Health KU Leuven
LEARNing about the status of air quality in schools and its impact on the cognition of children is a major cornerstone in LEARN. For that, we want to overcome the barriers of the currently existing technologies and take a bold step towards the development and deployment of novel sensors to detect the presence of possibly harmful air pollutants such as volatile organic compounds and ultrafine particles.
We will measure and characterize ...
Innovative coupling techniques for the treatment of volatile organic compounds (VOC): new methods to improve air quality Ghent University
