Principal pollutants that taint the air in Animal Facilities
Animal care sites carry a heavy pollutant load, and it reaches them through a range of routes.
Particulate Matter
Bedding, dust, dander and feed shed these particles.
Ammonia
It builds up from animal waste, chiefly urine.
TVOC
Chemicals, cleaning agents and disinfectants release it.
Pathogens
Bacteria, viruses and fungi grow on feed that is stored badly.
Carbon Dioxide
Where airflow is weak, indoor CO2 levels keep rising.
Where air pollution comes from in animal sites
Air pollution reaches animal sites through many routes, both inside and outside.Animal Farms | Laboratories | Care

Obstacles to Maintaining Clean Air
Animal care sites meet a number of obstacles in their efforts to keep indoor air clean, such as:
Ventilation Systems
Systems in poor condition reduce the airflow and leave rooms short of fresh air.
Holding Temperature and Humidity
Animals depend on both for comfort, but the weather outdoors can unsettle the controls.
Cross-Contamination
Loose airflow control at an animal site moves airborne pollutants between the rooms.Who is at Risk?
Air pollution can place the health of everyone at an animal site at risk.
Animal Health
At any animal site, poor air can set off breathing distress, infections and other health issues among the animals.
Staff and farmworkers
Poor air at animal farms, labs and care centres may damage the health of staff, and it can bring on a range of conditions.
Research outcomes
Pollutants in the air can sway research outcomes, as they may distort the data or lead to invalid conclusions.Air pollution Standards for Animal Care Sites
Review the air quality guidelines that other countries apply to animal centres.
