Many households in developing countries prepare food over indoor cook stoves with no ducting system to exhaust the combustion products outside. A woman in a household lights a fire in her cookstove at 4 pm. The fire emits benzo(a)pyrene, a carcinogenic compound, at a rate of 0.01 ng/min. The house has a size of 40 m3 and a ventilation rate of 1 m3/h. The ambient indoor air concentration of benzo(a)pyrene was 0.2 ng/m3 when she started the fire, but no significant concentration of benzo(a)pyrene is found in the outdoor air. What is the indoor benzo(a)pyrene concentration in the household at 6 pm?

   C = 0.22857 ng / m³

Explanation:

Let's solve this problem for part the total time in the kitchen is

          t = 2h (60 min / 1h) = 120 min

The concentration (C) quantity of benzol pyrene is the initial quantity plus the quantity generated per area minus the quantity eliminated by the air flow. The amount removed can be calculated assuming that an amount of extra air that must be filled with the pollutant

amount generated

         C = co + time_generation rate / (area_house + area_flow)

         C = 0.2 + 0.01 120 / (40+ 2)

         C = 0.22857 ng / m³
