Maintaining Optimal Indoor Air Quality Pollutants Removal and Proper Ventilation in Mixed-Use Complexes

Abstract

In the study of indoor air quality in mixed-use complexes, the focus lies on understanding the intricate balance required to maintain optimal Indoor Air Quality (IAQ). Mixed-use environments present a unique challenge due to the diverse sources of indoor pollutants they encompass. By employing a survey research design that integrates both qualitative and quantitative data analysis, the study aims to shed light on the effectiveness of various strategies in controlling pollutant sources and ensuring well-maintained HVAC systems to improve IAQ. The findings of this research underscore the need to adopt a holistic approach to achieve and sustain optimal levels of IAQ levels within mixed-use complexes. Recommendations such as implementing high-efficiency filtration systems and enhancing ventilation mechanisms emerge as crucial steps towards improving air quality and ultimately enhancing the comfort and well-being of occupants in these multifaceted environments. This comprehensive approach not only addresses the immediate concerns related to IAQ but also contributes to the overall sustainability and liveability of mixed-use complexes, aligning with the growing emphasis on green technologies and practices in modern architectural design.
