A technique was developed and tested to measure the air exchange rates (AER) in citrus degreening rooms. The procedure entails a step function introduction of CO2 and monitoring its subsequent decay to the ambient background level. This decrease was modelled by a first-order equation, C(t) = Cb + (Co - Cb)e-kt. In the commercial rooms tested, the AER varied from 16.5 air exchanges/h to a low of 0.6 air exchanges/h in newly constructed rooms.
