Abstract: Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are ubiquitous in indoor environments. Inhalation of VOCs can cause irritation, difficulty breathing, and nausea, and damage the central nervous system as well as other organs. In recent years, indoor VOCs pollution has caused widespread concern. This review briefly summarizes the indoor source of VOCs and presents a general overview of the current treatment techniques for indoor VOCs such as adsorption, ozonation, photocatalytic oxidation, Cold plasma or non-thermal plasma, and hybrid system.

Key words: Indoor air pollution, Indoor air purification, Volatile organic compounds
