“…Research indicates that noxious gases can be harmful to humans, even at low concentrations, causing damage to the nervous and respiratory systems. Certain toxic odorous gases, such as H 2 S gas, can even lead to poisoning and the onset of cancer [46]. Therefore, the detection of the components of polluting gases in polluted sites holds significant importance.…”

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs), as a primary pollutant in industrial-contaminated sites or polluted soils, cause severe damage to the soil. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the transport of VOCs in soil is imperative to develop effective detection means and removal methods. Among them, biochar possesses potential advantages in the adsorption of VOCs, serving as an effective method for removing VOCs from soil. This review provides an overview of the VOCs within soil, their transport mechanisms, monitoring technology, and removal approach. Firstly, the historical development of the VOC migration mechanism within the capping layer is described in detail. Secondly, the in situ monitoring techniques for VOCs are systematically summarized. Subsequently, one of the effective removal technologies, a capping layer for polluted sites, is simply introduced. Following this, the potential application of a biochar-modified capping layer for the removal of VOCs is comprehensively discussed. Finally, the major challenges in the field and present prospects are outlined. The objective of this study is to furnish researchers with a foundational understanding of VOCs, their relevant information, and their removal approach, inspiring environmental protection and soil pollution control.

“…For some gases acute toxic gas standards were developed for occupational, military, and civilian use that predict or establish guidelines for limiting exposure to inhaled toxic gases. Nevertheless, large disparities between guidelines exist for similar exposure scenarios, such as: Acute Exposure Guidelines (AEGL), Immediate Danger to Life or Health (IDLH), Purser, International Organization for Standardization (ISO 13571), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), or Agency for toxic Substance and Disease Registry (ATSDR) (Iyoho et al, 2011).…”

Respiratory irritants are substances which can cause inflammation or other adverse reactions in the respiratory system (lungs, nose, mouth, larynx and trachea) after being inhaled. Depending on the type and amount of irritant gas inhaled, victims can experience symptoms ranging from minor respiratory discomfort to acute airway and lung injury and even death. The lungs are susceptible to many airborne irritants. A common response cascade to a variety of irritant gases includes inflammation, edema and epithelial sloughing which, left untreated, can result in scar formation and pulmonary and airway remodeling. There are hundreds of substances that can pollute air and harm lungs. Harmful gases and chemicals are just one type of airborne pollutants that can adversely affect the lungs. Examples of respiratory irritants include, for example, chlorine, amonium, ozone, sulphur dioxide or nitrogen oxides. These substances, their sources of exposure, physical and other properties, and effects on the victim are summarized in this article.
