Abstract |
Indoor Air Quality deterioration due to various environmental causes of disease that has already been identified by many case studies. In particular, children are easily exposed to danger on indoor air contamination. So, the indoor air quality management of the living space of children is very important. However, the indoor air quality management guideline of daycare facilities is insufficient to guarantee the health of children. The purpose of this study, child day-care facilities in 73 locations in the metropolitan area, indoor air quality survey and analysis to identify the status and aims to provide data to improve Indoor Air Quality. As a result, 47 percent of facilities in the mechanical ventilation systems and air cleaners were installed. Known only to 26% for indoor air quality by responding to the survey that appeared to be a lack of awareness. as the following measuring result, contaminant of concentrations of the measured facilities are against the regulations which CO2(carbon dioxide) by 29%, PM10(particulate matter) by 42%, TVOC(total volatile organic compound) by 19%, HCHO(formaldehyde) by 6% and 37% for TBC(total bacteria colony) was measured. Therefore, indoor air quality in child care through the improvement of the active response and sustained efforts are required. |
