Principles Of Vapor Intrusion Assessment For Health Risk Characterization

This unbiased, scientific evaluation of contemporary vapor intrusion assessment technologies includes a description of the technology, advantages and disadvantages of the technology, and preferred or recommended application guidance. The book provides a technical rather than prescriptive guidance and demonstrates how data from complementary assessment technologies can and should be used in concert to describe the potential for exposure from this subtle and often elusive exposure source. It also provides an overview of current and relevant technologies for evaluating exposure to occupants in structures from the infiltration of subsurface soil gas.Features* Provides a three-pronged approach to Air Pathway Analysis that uses predictive modeling and direct measurement of indoor air quality and air emissions* Focuses on the use of EPA's surface emission isolation flux chamber for area source assessment* Presents contributions from leading experts in the fieldSchmidt, C.E. is the author of 'Principles Of Vapor Intrusion Assessment For Health Risk Characterization ', published 2007 under ISBN 9780849330407 and ISBN 0849330408.
