Within the SARWS project, eLichens is involved in the design of mobile air quality microsensors and fine scale air quality modelling. eLichens has recently completed the first part of the work: designing a mobile air quality device and conducting tests in real conditions.
Why it is important to be informed about indoor air quality pollution?
According to, the World Health Organization WHO almost 4 million people die per year from illness spread by indoor air pollution, rendering air pollution one of the world's most critical health concerns. Noncommunicable disorders such as stroke, ischemic cardiac failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD), and lung cancer are caused by household air pollutants.
