Primer on Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)

As with other Pollution Probe primers, The Primer on Volatile Organic Compounds has been designed as an educational resource for people who want to understand this source of pollution and then take action to protect themselves and their children. In addition, the primer has been designed for use as an introduction to controlling VOCs from small- and medium-sized businesses. There are many opportunities in this sector to reduce VOC emissions and hence the unnecessary exposure of employees and surrounding communities to these pollutants.
