Best Answer

Almost all of he contaminants present in outdoor pollution can be found in indoor pollution. They include PAHs, solvents, organics, heavy metals, particulates, benzene, carcinogens, fecal material.

So how do they differ?

* Outdoor pollution levels are monitored by industry and government. * There are criteria for outdoor pollution. * Problems identified in outdoor air are investigated and corrected * Out door air pollutants are transient - the wind changes and they are gone.
