In-depth IAQ seminar set for Sydney

An indoor air quality (IAQ) seminar boasting prominent international speakers will take place over October 17–18 in Sydney.

Titled Assessing and Reducing Exposure Risk From Airborne Pathogens, the special IAQ seminar is hosted by AIRAH and IBEC. It will feature international speakers Kenneth F Martinez (Idaho National Laboratory) and Dr Claire Bird (Litmas).

Covered across the two days will be critical IAQ subjects:

• Health effects associated with exposure to bioaerosols – airborne viruses, bacteria, and fungi/mould
• Monitoring for microorganisms in the built environment – sample location, sample collection methods, sample analysis choices, current and future trends in real-time measurement, data interpretation
• Understanding how site-based and laboratory-based risk assessment improves decision-making
• Remediation and risk mitigation of microbially contaminated environments including after outbreaks of infectious disease and mould
• Case studies demonstrating a risk-based approach to assessment and determining when a building is healthy.

The venue for the event is the Novotel Sydney Centre.
