IAQX helps users analyze the impact of pollutant sources and sinks ventilation and air cleaners. It performs conventional IAQ simulations to calculate the pollutant concentration andor personal exposure as a function of time. It can also estimate adequate ventilation rates based on user-provided air quality criteria.
