What are VOCs?
Volatile Organic Compounds are the chemicals present in a wide range
of products from cleaning, to cosmetic and DIY. There are thousands of
different VOCs and today’s technology doesn’t make it affordable to detect
all of them with a single sensor. Foobot is providing a global reading of VOCs
in the air by scanning most of those gases declared dangerous to human by
World Health Organization
These chemicals can originate as a gas form or become gas form once the
temperature increases temperature (over 21°C / 68.8°F).
What are PM2.5?
Particulate matter, aka PM, is a pollutant that affects more people than
any other pollutant in the world. It is impossible to avoid them in our daily
life and sometimes we actually may see them. They are the particles that
are floating in the air, including dusts, pollens and acarids feces. Although
PM can be present in all rooms the kitchen is the main room where PM is
generated. The smaller the PM’s sizes the higher the danger as it can go over
your bloodstream and cause tremendous effects on your health.
The outdoor particles are mainly due to transportation, industrial plants and
pollen.
What data are provided by Foobot, 24/7?
Global index: This result is the global indoor air pollution in % based on
the readings of VOCs and PM sensors using the Wolrd Health Organization’s
Thresholds. The lower, the better. In case of pollution this index can go over
100%
tVOC: Foobot measures the total VOCs in the air and provides a global
reading of the chemical pollution. Readings of tVOCs are in ppb (part per
billion).
PM: Particulate Matter is made of fine and tiny particles suspended in the air
that can come from the industrial sector but also dust, pollen, acarid feces
as well as combustion. Foobot provides readings of PM2.5 in µg/m3.
