Indoor air quality (IAQ) is the air quality within buildings and structures.Poor indoor air quality due to indoor air pollution is known to affect the health, comfort, and well-being of building occupants.
Since the release of the initial 1989 study, titled A study of interior landscape plants for indoor air pollution abatement: An Interim Report, [6] further research has been done including a 1993 paper [7] and 1996 book [8] by B.
