Abstract: Indoor air quality is an important issue for the natural gas industry, as well as, the residential user of natural gas. The U.S. natural gas industry has sponsored research aimed at producing scientific data, analysis and information to describe and understand the contribution of emissions from unvented gas appUances to indoor air quahty, the risk, if any, to the public, as well as, steps that can be taken to reduce emissions. The focus of this paper is to summarize the current status of some of the research aimed at determining the population exposure trace emissions from the products of combustion from unvented gas appliances. Emphasis will be given to the research related to nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and to a lesser extent carbon monoxide (CO). Five major program elements are discussed: determination of emission characteristics of unvented gas appliances factors which influence pollution levels in dwelling units the distribution of indoor levels of nitrogen dioxide for various populations the modeling and prediction of indoor population exposure levels and personal exposure to pollutants.
