Indoor and Outdoor Air Quality In Hospital Environment
Abstract
The objective of this study is to determine the indoor and outdoor concentration ratio of suspended particulate matter. Spatial variation was performed by use of portable, SKC Air Check, high volume Gravimetric sampler with flow rate of 2L/min and a sampling duration of fight hours maintained during this pilot study, which was conducted between December 2010 to February 2011 in five different locations. The indoor particulate matter (I.P.M) found in the range of 243.05-451.39 while the Outdoor Particulate Matter (O.P.M) was in the range of 451.39-625.00. The correlation between the outdoor and indoor particulate matter was positive. (r = 0.491). The spatial variation of both indoor and outdoor particulate matter was significant and remarkable.
