  • Characterization of Air Freshener Emission: the Potential Health Effects
    The Journal of Toxicological Sciences (J. Toxicol. Sci.) 535 Vol.40, No.5, 535-550, 2015 Review Characterization of air freshener emission: the potential health effects Sanghwa Kim1, 2,*, Seong-Ho Hong1,*, Choon-Keun Bong3 and Myung-Haing Cho1,2,4,5,6 1Laboratory of Toxicology, BK21 PLUS Program for Creative Veterinary Science Research, Research Institute for Veterinary Science and College of Veterinary Medicine, Seoul National University, Seoul 151-742, Korea 2Graduate Group of Tumor Biology, Seoul National University, Seoul 151-742, Korea 3Green Solus, Seoul 172-775, Korea 4Graduate School of Convergence Science and Technology, Seoul National University, Suwon 443-270, Korea 5Advanced Institute of Convergence Technology, Seoul National University, Suwon 443-270, Korea 6Institute of GreenBio Science Technology, Seoul National University, Pyeongchang-gun, Gangwon-do, 232-916, Korea (Received March 30, 2015; Accepted June 3, 2015) ABSTRACT — Air freshener could be one of the multiple sources that release volatile organic com- pounds (VOCs) into the indoor environment. The use of these products may be associated with an increase in the measured level of terpene, such as xylene and other volatile air freshener components, including aldehydes, and esters. Air freshener is usually used indoors, and thus some compounds emit- ted from air freshener may have potentially harmful health impacts, including sensory irritation, respira- tory symptoms, and dysfunction of the lungs. The constituents of air fresheners can react with ozone to produce secondary pollutants such as formaldehyde, secondary organic aerosol (SOA), oxidative product, and ultrafine particles. These pollutants then adversely affect human health, in many ways such as dam- age to the central nervous system, alteration of hormone levels, etc.

    VII. HEALTH RISK AND NEEDS ASSESSMENT FOR THE AIRBORNE TOXIC CONTROL MEASURE FOR PARA-DICHLOROBENZENE SOLID AIR FRESHENERS AND TOILET/URINAL CARE PRODUCTS A. INTRODUCTION Para-dichlorobenzene (PDCB) is a chlorinated benzene compound designated by the International Agency for Research on Cancer to be possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B). It is also a California Toxic Air Contaminant (TAC) and a federal Hazardous Air Pollutant. Humans are substantially exposed to this compound by breathing indoor air. The compound is widely used primarily as the air freshener in toilet and urinal deodorant blocks and also as the main ingredient in mothballs. Breath, blood, urine and even breast milk samples and adipose tissue from most persons in the United States show measurable levels of PDCB, which is indicative of its widespread use (see Subsection H.5. Body Burden). The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and the U.S. EPA recommend that where possible, PDCB, and items to be protected against moths, should be placed in trunks or other containers that can be stored in areas that are separately ventilated from the home, such as attics and detached garages (CPSC-U.S. EPA, 2004). The Air Resources Board has followed the use of PDCB in air fresheners since 1991. At the time, PDCB toilet/urinal blocks were essentially the only urinal deodorizer available. While we recognized at the time that PDCB was a possible human carcinogen, little in the way of viable alternatives existed. Staff decided at the time to provide an exemption for PDCB air fresheners that were at least 98 percent pure, with the intention of following the health effects literature and watching for the availability of alternatives.

  • Ultra-Fine Particles and Gaseous Volatile Organic Compound Exposures from the Reaction of Ozone and Car-Air Freshener During Metropolis Travel
    Environ. Eng. Res. Vol. 12, No. 2, pp. 72～80, 2007 Korean Society of Environmental Engineers ULTRA-FINE PARTICLES AND GASEOUS VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUND EXPOSURES FROM THE REACTION OF OZONE AND CAR-AIR FRESHENER DURING METROPOLIS TRAVEL Rheo B. Lamorena1, Su-Mi Park2, Gwi-Nam Bae2, and Woojin Lee1,† 1Dept. of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, 373-1 Daejon, Korea 2Environment and Process Technology, Korea Institute of Science and Technology, 130-650 Seoul, Korea (received June 2007, accepted May 2007) Abstract：Experiments were conducted to identify the emissions from the car air freshener and to identify the formation of ultra-fine particles and secondary gaseous compounds during the ozone-initiated oxidations with emitted VOCs. The identified primary constituents emitted from the car air freshener in this study were -pinene, -pinene, -cymene and limonene. Formation of ultra-fine particles (4.4 - 160 nm) was observed when ozone was injected into the chamber containing emitted monoterpenes from the air freshener. Particle number concentrations, particle mass concentrations, and surface concentrations were measured in time dependent experiments to describe the particle formation and growth within the chamber. The irritating secondary gaseous products formed during the ozone-initiated reactions include formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acrolein, acetone, and propionaldehyde. Ozone concentration (50 and 100 ppb) and temperature (30 and 40 °C) significantly affect the formation of particles and gaseous products during the ozone-initiated reactions. The results obtained in this study provided an insight on the potential exposure of particles and irritating secondary products formed during the ozone-initiated reaction to passengers in confined spaces.

  • Catalytic Air Freshening Diffusers Based on Isopropyl Alcohol - a Major Source of Acetone Indoors
    Aerosol and Air Quality Research, 14: 177–184, 2014 Copyright © Taiwan Association for Aerosol Research ISSN: 1680-8584 print / 2071-1409 online doi: 10.4209/aaqr.2013.02.0051 Catalytic Air Freshening Diffusers Based on Isopropyl Alcohol - A Major Source of Acetone Indoors Otmar Geiss*, Carmen Del Cacho, Josefa Barrero-Moreno European Commission, Joint Research Centre, Institute for Health and Consumer Protection, Via E.Fermi 2749, 21027 Ispra (Va), Italy ABSTRACT Air fresheners are used in indoor environments for perfuming the ambience and/or masking unpleasant smells. There are several types of air fresheners on the market including those belonging to the family of catalytic diffusers. The fuel of these devices is frequently 2-methylpropanol, which, while operating, is oxidised to acetone. The acetone emission of a catalytic diffuser was measured for two fragrances under controlled laboratory conditions as well as in a private household. Emission rates were 530 mg/h and 660 mg/h respectively. Acetone concentrations of approximately 700 µg/m3 were measured in a private household three hours after the diffuser was extinguished. Besides isopropyl alcohol, one of the two fragrances contained 2-methylpropanol as a fuel component, which is oxidised to 2-methylpropanal. The emission rate for 2-methylpropanal was 11 mg/h. Catalytic diffusers containing isopropyl alcohol as fuel were identified as being a major indoor source of acetone. Although not a legal requirement, the secondary formation of acetone should be included in product information along with a list of product constituents. As an alternative, a less easily oxidisable solvent could be used. Keywords: Catalytic diffuser; Air freshener; Acetone, 2-Methylpropanal; IAQ.

  • Citizen Petition to EPA and CPSC Regarding Air Fresheners, September 15, 2007
    September 19, 2007 Stephen Johnson, Administrator Environmental Protection Agency Ariel Rios Building 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, D.C. 20460 Commissioner Thomas Moore U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission 4330 East West Highway Bethesda, MD 20814 Re: Citizen Petition to EPA and CPSC Regarding Air Fresheners Dear Administrator Johnson and Commissioner Moore: Sierra Club, Alliance for Healthy Homes, the National Center for Healthy Housing, and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) petition the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) to undertake specific actions to assess fully the risk to the public from exposure to air fresheners and to take reasonable steps to reduce that risk. The petitioners are national organizations committed to protecting public health. Almost every American is exposed to air fresheners in some manner. Millions use air fresheners in their home. Outside their home, they are exposed in bathrooms where air fresheners are common. Many offices, retail stores, and restaurants use air fresheners as well. Often, the public is unaware of the nature, extent, and consequences of the exposure. American’s extensive exposure to air fresheners has grown more significant in recent years. According to a market research firm in New Jersey, total U.S. sales excluding home fragrance products such as incense and scented candles are expected to reach $1.72 billion – up 50 percent or $600 million since 2003.1 When incense is included, the U.S market was estimated at $2.9 billion in 20042 with market studies reporting further growth.3 1 Louise Story, “Sensing Opportunity in Dormitory Air,” New York Times, January 3, 2007, www.nytimes.com/2007/01/03/business/media/03fresh.html (July 26, 2007).

  • CLEANING PRODUCTS and INDOOR AIR QUALITY Actions You Can Take to Reduce Exposures
    Cleaning Products Fact Sheet October, 2008 Fact Sheet October 2008 CLEANING PRODUCTS and INDOOR AIR QUALITY Actions you can take to reduce exposures Keeping your home clean is one of the most important activities you can do to assure healthy indoor air quality. However, the indoor use of certain common cleaning products and air fresheners when ozone (the primary component of smog outdoors) is present may cause an increase in indoor concentrations of some pollutants. Fortunately, people who use these products can take simple steps to reduce the production of air pollutants and their exposure to these pollutants. In a recent study funded by the California Air Resources Board (ARB), investigators from the University of California at Berkeley and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory measured pollutant concentrations during and after simulated cleaning activities, including mopping and general cleaning, and during use of a plug-in air freshener. The investigators found that chemicals directly emitted from the products, such as terpenes and glycol ethers, generally were below levels of concern, but that indoor chemical reactions of the substances emitted produced some other pollutants at levels of health concern. Specifically, using products that contained terpenes – which are components of pine and citrus oils – in rooms where elevated levels of ozone were present, resulted in the production of formaldehyde and ultrafine particles, both of which can potentially harm human health. Formaldehyde is a known human carcinogen with no level of exposure that poses zero risk, and is a strong eye, nose, throat and lung irritant. Because there are many indoor sources of formaldehyde, it is found in nearly all homes and buildings.
