All-round goodness for you. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are found in everything from paints and finishes to underarm deodorant and freshly baked bread. They are a major concern of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and air quality boards across the USA and Europe. VOCs have been found to be a major contributing factor to the production of ozone, a common air pollutant that has been proven to be a public health hazard. Ozone has been a difficult pollutant to control, because it is not emitted into the air, but actually formed in the atmosphere through a photochemical process. It is in this process that VOCs play a significant role. VOCs in the air react with oxides of nitrogen in the presence of sunlight to form ozone. Ozone in the stratosphere is part of what is commonly referred to as the‘ozone layer’. Ozone in the ozone layer is helpful because it helps to block the sun’s ultraviolet radiation. Unfortunately, most VOCs produce ozone, which inhabits the troposphere.
