Indoor air pollution

intentional introduction of outside air into a space

infectious disease characterized by severe form of infection producing pneumonia

inhalation of smoke by persons other than the intended active smoker

organic chemical with appreciable vapor pressure at room temperature

powder used in laser printers and photocopiers to form the printed text and images

HEPA (, high efficiency particulate air, or high efficiency particulate arresting) is an efficiency standard of air filters. A HEPA filter is an air filter meeting such a standard.

Outgassing (sometimes called offgassing, particularly when in reference to indoor air quality) is the release of a gas that was dissolved, trapped, frozen, or absorbed in some material. Outgassing can include sublimation and evaporation (which are phase transitions of a substance into a gas), as well as desorption, seepage from cracks or internal volumes, and gaseous products of slow chemical reactions. Boiling is generally thought of as a separate phenomenon from outgassing because it consists of a phase transition of a liquid into a vapor of the same substance.
