Volatile organic compounds : emission, pollution and control /
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) have anthropogenic and biogenic origins. At the Earth's scale, the natural sources represent a great part of the total VOCs present in the atmosphere but in industrialized regions, anthropogenic ones become the majority due to the various human activities relat...
