Ozone pollution can not only cause serious effects on human respiratory tract, lung, cardiovascular and immune system, but also lead to secondary pollution of indoor air environment by reacting with human surface sebum, building materials surface and other indoor compounds. As people stay indoors for more than 90% of their time, indoor ozone exposure is far more harmful than outdoor ozone exposure. Indoor ozone mainly comes from the outdoor environment. Therefore, it is an important prerequisite for controlling indoor ozone pollution to master the characteristics of indoor ozone pollution concentration under the influence of outdoor air pollution. The outdoor ozone concentration of 20 representative cities in the five climatic areas of China were investigated in this study. Meanwhile, indoor ozone concentration was predicted based on I/O ratio (indoor-outdoor concentration ratio). Furthermore, the indoor ozone pollution level affected by window opening time, air change rate and ozone deposition velocity was analyzed. The results show that the increase of air change rate and window opening time leads to the rise of indoor ozone pollution level. Moreover, the growing up of ozone deposition velocity may cause more ozone to be removed by the indoor surface, then the indoor ozone concentration decreases. In addition, indoor ozone pollution is the most serious in cold zone and the least serious in mild zone.
Key words: ozone concentration / I/O ratio / window opening time / air exchange rate / deposition velocity
