Papers Sought for Indoor Environmental Quality Conference



PEACHTREE CORNERS, Ga. — ASHRAE, along with Air infiltration and Ventilation Centre (AIVC), are issuing a call for papers for the Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) 2025 Conference, scheduled for next September in Montreal, Canada.

Industry professionals, researchers, and experts are invited to submit abstracts by Monday, Nov. 11.

The conference, themed “Rising to New Challenges: Connecting IEQ to a Sustainable Future,” will focus on how IEQ affects occupants, while also addressing the growing need for building resilience amid a changing climate a press release from ASHRAE said. The event will offer a platform for leading researchers and practitioners to present solutions for improving IEQ and advancing sustainability.

Requested topic areas include:

• Performance metrics for all aspects of IEQ.

• Occupant behavior: How behavior impacts IEQ and how IEQ impacts behavior — the psychological dimensions of IEQ.

• Smart sensors, data, and controls: Sensor properties, data management, cybersecurity, applications, commissioning, and equivalence.

• Resilience and IEQ: Responding to climate change and disasters.

• Ventilation: Mechanical, passive, natural, and hybrid systems.

• Air tightness: Trends, methods, and impacts

• Thermal comfort: Dynamic approaches, health impacts, and trends

• The environment around us: Acoustics, lighting, glazing, interiors, and impacts upon wellness.

• Policy and standards: Trends, impacts, implications.

• HVAC and IEQ in a post-COVID world.

• Ventilation and building decarbonization.

• Lighting and acoustics: How can the outside be brought inside, or vice versa.
