Ever wondered how a global standard for indoor air quality could change the way we live and work?
In this episode, we welcome Soterios Papathanassio, the driving force behind the Global Open Air Quality Standard (GoAQS).
We explore Soterios' vision to harmonize the scattered and often incomplete information on indoor air quality, a necessity as crucial as water and food. You'll gain insights on the collaborative journey involving academia and industry to create a universal standard that can be adopted worldwide.
We tackle the nitty-gritty of developing practical indoor air quality standards amidst technological and economic constraints. Discover the innovative two-tier approach that starts with basic monitoring of particulate pollution and carbon dioxide and progresses to encompass other pollutants like formaldehyde and ozone.
