Air quality is rapidly becoming one of the biggest societal challenges of our time. Outdoor air pollution is well known to be harmful to human health and is thought to have cost the NHS and social care in England over £157 million in 2018\. Indoor air can be up to five times more polluted than the air outside as a result of the emission of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), Particulate Matter (PM), Nitrogen Oxides, Carbon Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide and Ozone from numerous sources in the home.In this project, the collaborative team will develop and test an innovative platform to monitor and visualise indoor air quality. The platform will help households manage indoor air quality through an easy-to-use and intuitive smart phone application or website. Building on arbnco's innovative indoor environmental monitoring system 'arbn well', the platform will monitor the levels of key pollutants, such as PM and VOCs, in the domestic environmental and provide actionable recommendations to householders to mitigate the health impacts of long term exposure to these pollutants.The project is led by arbnco in collaboration with Mitsubishi Electric, Energy Systems Catapult, University of Strathclyde, Modulous and SNRG .arbnco is an innovative SME developing digital solutions for the built environment. arbnco's award-winning indoor environmental monitoring solution, arbn well, provides the underlying hardware and software technology for the proposed system.The University of Strathclyde's Professor Sharpe is a leading international expert on indoor air quality and its impact on health. His team will provide expertise and experience in monitoring domestic pollution.Energy Systems Catapult is an independent, not-for-profit centre of excellence that bridges the gap between industry, government, academia and research. The Catapult's Living Lab facility of 200 connected smart-homes will be used to test the solution in a real-world environment.Mitsubishi Electric Corporation is a multinational electronics and electrical equipment manufacturing company. They are a major manufacturer of Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditions (HVAC) systems and domestic Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVRH) systems. Supported by Mitsubishi Electric, the project will demonstrate the integration of air quality monitoring with Mitsubishi's range of domestic ventilation systems.Modulous and SNRG are at the forefront of developing new approaches to sustainable and affordable homes. To optimise energy efficiency the design of these homes incorporates a high-degree of air tightness and therefore monitoring the indoor environment is of critical importance.The project will explore routes-to-market with Mitsubishi, Modulous and SNRG.

空气质量正迅速成为我们这个时代最大的社会挑战之一。众所周知，室外空气污染对人体健康有害，据信2018年英国的NHS和社会护理费用超过1.57亿英镑。室内空气污染是室外空气污染的五倍，室内空气中的挥发性有机化合物（VOC）、颗粒物（PM）、氮氧化物、二氧化碳、一氧化碳和臭氧的排放源众多。在这个项目中，合作团队将开发和测试一个创新平台，以监测和可视化室内空气质量。该平台将帮助家庭通过易于使用和直观的智能手机应用程序或网站管理室内空气质量。该平台以arbnco创新的室内环境监测系统“arbn well”为基础，将监测家庭环境中PM和VOCs等主要污染物的水平，并为住户提供可行的建议，以减轻长期暴露于这些污染物对健康的影响。该项目由arbnco牵头，三菱电机、能源系统弹射器、斯特拉斯克莱德大学、Modulous和SNRG .arbnco是一家为建筑环境开发数字解决方案的创新型中小企业。arbnco屡获殊荣的室内环境监测解决方案arbn well为拟议的系统提供了基础硬件和软件技术。斯特拉斯克莱德大学的Sharpe教授是室内空气质量及其对健康影响方面的国际领先专家。他的团队将提供监测家庭污染的专业知识和经验。能源系统弹射器是一个独立的，不以营利为目的的卓越中心，弥合工业，政府，学术界和研究之间的差距。Catapult的生活实验室设施包括200个连接的智能家居，将用于在现实环境中测试该解决方案。三菱电机公司是一家跨国电子和电气设备制造公司。他们是供暖，通风和空调（HVAC）系统和家用机械通风与热回收（MVRH）系统的主要制造商。在三菱电机的支持下，该项目将展示空气质量监测与三菱家用通风系统的集成。Modulous和SNRG处于开发可持续和经济适用住房新方法的最前沿。为了优化能源效率，这些住宅的设计采用了高度的气密性，因此监测室内环境至关重要。该项目将与三菱、Modulous和SNRG一起探索进入市场的途径。
