Abstract
Indoor chemical processes can be successfully modeled using a variety of techniques. At the center of much indoor chemical process modeling is the mass or concentration balance, which can be used in single- or multizonal well-mixed models to predict the transient evolution of gas- and particle-phase species. This chapter first outlines the basic framework to simulate gas-phase chemical reactions, with a focus on ozone-driven reactions and the subsequent formation of hydroxyl radicals (OH) indoors. Then, indoor particle chemical modeling is described, with a focus on predicting indoor secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation. Finally, surface-phase reaction frameworks are presented, with a focus on modeling byproducts due to oxidant deposition and understanding surface reaction processes themselves. In each section, we also highlight relevant indoor air literature articles that provide richer detail.
