A study from the University of Hormozgan in Iran has identified the safest standing positions in airport smoking lounges to minimize exposure to cigarette smoke.
Researchers found that smokers sitting farther away from ventilation inlets experienced lower levels of pollution compared to those sitting near the inlets.
Body heat affects smoke absorption, with more cigarette pollution being absorbed when body heat is present.
The study suggests that improving ventilation in smoking lounges, including installing exhaust vents on walls, can enhance airflow and remove smoke particles more effectively.
