Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) include industrial chemicals such as benzene, xylene, toluene and formaldehyde. People who suffer from respiratory ailments, such as asthma, and the very young or elderly are most likely to be adversely affected by high levels of VOCs in the air. Acute problems include headaches and nausea, whereas chronic problems include cancer and damage to the central nervous system. Environmental damage includes the buildup of ozone in the lower atmosphere which can have harmful affects on vegetation as well as human health.

挥发性有机化合物（VOCs）包括工业化学品，如苯、二甲苯、甲苯和甲醛。患有呼吸系统疾病（如哮喘）的人，以及年幼或年老的人最有可能受到空气中高浓度挥发性有机化合物的不利影响。急性问题包括头痛和恶心，而慢性问题包括癌症和中枢神经系统损伤。环境破坏包括低层大气中臭氧的积累，这可能对植被和人类健康产生有害影响。
