Assessing the benefits in green walls to improve indoor air quality
The aim is to actually put green walls to the test by collecting data samples from different areas, these different areas will have greens walls installed and others wont. The tests will be done using the same instrument in all tests and the environment will try to be kept the same in all test scenario to get the closest results possible. Also environment when testing will be up to the Australian standards such as AS1668.2 Mechanical Ventilation and SAA HB32 control of microbial growth. Once we have collected the data we will be comparing it to the existing standards that are set. Standards from ASHARE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers) and ABCB (Australian Building Codes Board) will be used.
Just talk about the benefits of green walls and how it can or cant not improve indoor air quality.
