Major Air Pollutants
The variety of air pollutants inside an airport is very wide. If overlooked, they can take a serious toll on passengers, staff, and nearby residents. For that reason, air monitoring in and around airports is essential. A real-time system helps airport managers see how much pollution each source adds and meet the required standards.
PM2.5
Fine, breathable dust and water droplets
CO2
High passenger occupancy
TVOC
Carpets, disinfectants, room fresheners, and similar products
Oxides (NOx, SOx)
Oxides emitted during operations
Viruses & Bacteria
Diseases carried by passengers
Noise
Loud noise from large crowds gathering
Who Is at Risk?
High passenger occupancy is one of the major reasons for poor air inside airports. Air pollution puts some groups at greater risk, including people with underlying health issues, seniors, children, and other sensitive groups. Even healthy adults can feel sick after breathing poor air.
Underlying Health Issues
Passengers and staff with a breathing illness already have weaker lungs.
Security Staff
Airport security staff are exposed to the same polluted air on the premises.
Staff
Staff may lose focus, perform worse, and face a higher risk of illness.
Passengers
Even healthy passengers may notice discomfort, headaches, and similar symptoms.
PM2.5
Heart and lung disorders resulting from breathing in particles
CO2
Breathing problems, nausea, and convulsions
Noise
Stress, anxiety, high blood pressure, and headaches caused by noise
Oxides
Coughing, choking, tiredness, and similar effects when exposed
Virus & Bacteria
Infections are common following contact with viruses and bacteria
TVOC
Headaches and sore eyes, nose, and throat
