Weitere Versionen

Nach wie vor das einzige Buch, das sich ausschließlich der Analytik von Luft in Innenräumen widmet! In vier übersichtlich organisierten Teilen behandelt das Werk Schadstoffmessung, Strategien der Luftüberwachung, Feldstudien und Emissionsstudien. In diesem Kontext werden die physikochemischen Eigenschaften der relevanten organischen Verbindungen besprochen, Emissionsquellen erörtert und Nachweisverfahren verglichen. Zu den Beispielen zählen etwa die Innenräume von Autos, Museen, Büros und klimatisierten Gebäuden. Für diese Neuauflage wurde das Material durchgehend überarbeitet und aktualisiert. Hinzugekommen sind unter anderem Informationen zu den Emissionen elektronischer Geräte.
