Household air pollution

Household air pollution is a mixture of particles and gases resulting from incomplete combustion of fuels used in the home for heating and cooking. The GBD focuses on use of solid fuels (coal/ charcoal, wood, dung, agricultural residue). In many locations, HAP is also a key contributor to ambient air pollution, potentially affecting public health more broadly on national and regional spatial scales.
