Investigating indoor concentrations of PM10 in an underground loading dock in Malaysia

Abstract

Risky air contaminants including PM10 can accumulate inside underground confined loading docks because of the enclosed nature and limited contacts of loading docks with ambient air. Exposure to PM10 can increase morbidity and mortality rates. Hence, this study aimed to investigate and model PM10 concentrations in an underground loading dock located at Kuala Lumpur city center, Malaysia.
