Abstract

With the developing of the society, the standards of human’s life are growing up. It is reasonable for people to pursue a better living environment, which means they want to live in a clean, tidy and warm working place to work and live. So plenty of people spent much money to decorate their homes. However, they were not realized perhaps it is this kind of behavior that makes indoor air pollution more pollution sources and factors affecting air quality which is harmful to their health. For example a large amount of formaldehyde, benzene and other volatile organic compounds in the materials used for interior decoration will cause various health hazards to the exposed population, including cancer. Besides, as the research at home and abroad, urban residents spend about 80 to 90 percent of their time in the indoor environment everyday. So diseases caused by harmful indoor gases arouse attention from the public and the government. More specifically, in 1990, the US Environmental Protection Agency published a list of chemical substances that have bad effects to the human body. The list of chemical substances covered four categories: particular matter, inorganic gases, volatile organic compounds, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Hind two kinds of material are indoor harmful gas main component. So the research on the effect of harmful gases on human body is urgently needed. However, China’s scientific research in this area is not sufficient, unable to adapt to the needs of government management decisions and public health requirements. Therefore, the composition of various chemicals indoor air and their effects on health are still very important topics at present. In this article we will discuss the correlation between the harmful chemical gases, more specifically are formaldehyde and benzene, and leukemia.
