The INTASENSE Project Sample Clauses

The INTASENSE Project. The key objective of the INTASENSE project is to develop new and innovative system for the control of indoor environments. Space heating typically accounts for more than 50% of the energy consumption of public and residential buildings in the European Union1, and reduction of this energy demand is a key strategy in the move to low energy/low carbon buildings. The careful management of air flow within a building forms part of this strategy through the control of inlet fresh air and exhaust air, maximising air re-circulation, and minimising the amount of fresh, cold air which is often drawn in through a heat exchanger. However, in doing this, there is a high risk that the air quality is reduced. Continued exposure to environments with poor air quality is a major public health concern in developed and developing countries. It is estimated that, taken together, the pollutants responsible for poor air quality cause nearly 2.5 million premature deaths per year world-wide2. Significantly, around 1.5 million of these deaths are due to polluted indoor air, and it is suggested that poor indoor air quality may pose a significant health risk to more than half of the world’s population3. Due to its link with industrialisation, societal health problems associated with poor air quality disproportionately affects the developed and rapidly developing nations - it is estimated that air pollution is responsible for the premature deaths of 370,000 Europeans citizens annually, with average life expectancy reduced by nearly nine months4. The chronic illnesses associated with exposure to poor air quality represent a major drain on international economies. In addition to the public healthcare costs, it is estimated that the total recorded sick leave in the EU that can be linked to poor air quality represents a productivity loss equivalent to more than €80 billion annually5. Remedial action to improve air quality (particularly indoor air quality) is often easy to implement. Often, relatively simple measures such as increased air flow through ventilation systems, or a greater proportion of fresh air to re-circulating air are sufficient to improve air quality. In other cases, low- energy air purification and detoxification technologies are available which will reduce the concentration of specific pollutants. Similarly, filtration systems (e.g. electrostatic filters) can be switched in to reduce the level of the particulate matter in the air (the principle pollutant responsible for p...
