Indoor volatile organic compound (VOC) detection and air quality analysis

Many organizations has set standard on the level of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) in indoor environment. They generally possess low boiling point thus easier for escape from the liquid or solid form and mix into the surrounding air. VOCs found in home, school, office and buildings are formaldehy...
