Abstract

The studies provide data on pollution emissions from kerosene heaters operated under laboratory conditions for short time periods. The need for data on pollutant levels resulting from the residental use of unvented kerosene heaters prompted the investigation. Air contaminant levels were greater than recommended guidelines and therefore could be presumed to pose a health risk to susceptible individuals. (1 table)(DP)
