NEW VAPING STUDY – EXHALED VAPOR WON’T HURT YOU
There is a new vaping study out that offers more evidence that the second hand vapor from vaping an e-cigarette poses no significant threats to the health of innocent bystanders. Furthermore, the vapor from e-cigarettes evaporates in the air within 10 seconds. This is the opposite of the second hand smoke from combustible cigarettes. That smoke lingers in the air thousands of times longer. In addition, it can even stick around in furnishings and such for several years.
WHO CONDUCTED THIS NEW VAPING STUDY
This study is on evaporation of e-cigarette vapor. In comparison to combustible cigarettes needing ventilation to dispel their second hand smoke. Dr. Dainius Martuzevicius of the Department of Environmental Technology, Kaunas University of Technology, in Kaunas, Lithuania is head of the team. The name of their paper written on the study and its findings is a Characterization of the Spatial and Temporal Dispersion Differences Between Exhaled E-Cigarette Mist and Cigarette Smoke. The Oxford Academic medical journal recently published this study.
NEW VAPING STUDY DETAILS
The scientific community is bragging that this new study is the most detailed one to date, as they put it, “investigate the dynamic properties of exhaled e-vapor aerosol particles”. The scientists collaborated on an international level. The Swiss Federal Institute of Technology the use of their laboratories and vape company Fontem Ventures footed a majority of the funding.
THE FINDINGS OF THE STUDY
The scientists performing this study measured the environmental air quality of rooms that were ventilated and ones that weren’t. Next they measured the environmental background levels and air quality in each room after vaping or lighting a cigarette. Finally, it took 30-40 minutes with good ventilation for the air quality and background levels to be back to the original levels in the rooms where the cigarettes had been lit. They found that the E-cigarette vapor evaporates immediately and the levels returned to normal within seconds. Furthermore, these particles disintegrate within seconds of being expelled. In addition, the particles are much smaller than those in cigarette smoke. Cigarette smoke requires lots of ventilation for the particles to dissipate.
MORE RESULTS
In part of the study, scientists asked volunteers to inhale and exhale e-cigarette vapor while they took air quality measurements. Furthermore, e-cigarette vapor releases very low levels of chemicals into the air. This is regardless of how long someone is vaping or from how far away they are. In addition, the vapor is unlikely to pose any threat to anyone nearby as the particles evaporate almost immediately.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, Vaping e-cigarettes does not produce harmful chemicals when vaped and exhaled. These findings were based on this recent scientific study performed by some top scientists in their field. The air quality stay the same before during and after vaping, additionally the vapor itself dissipates almost immediately.
