👉 Occurs fumes, also known as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), are gases emitted from solids or liquids when they are heated or exposed to air. These compounds can originate from various sources, including industrial processes, household products, and natural sources like plants. When these fumes evaporate, they can contaminate the air, posing health risks such as respiratory issues, headaches, and long-term damage if exposure is chronic. They are particularly concerning in enclosed spaces where ventilation is limited, leading to higher concentrations that can exacerbate these effects. Common examples of occurs fumes include benzene, formaldehyde, and toluene, which are often found in paints, solvents, and cleaning products.
