Emission source strength of cooking and exposure reduction potential of a typical hood
conference paper
There is established evidence linking exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2 5) to adverse health effects. As people spend the majority of their time indoors, and with the trend towards increasing building air tightness, exposure to PM2 5 indoors is expected to increase, without additionalpurpose provided ventilation. Cooking has been identified as a key indoor source of PM2 5. Complete source removal is not feasible for cooking, as it is an activity that takes place in most homes, however, the use of cooker hoods which remove emitted pollutants at source can reduce indoor concentrations
