The developments are part of a six-year programme to effectively tackle the problem
Researchers from the Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources (NIEER) under the Chinese Academy of Sciences conducted a six-year programme to study and solve the humidity problem at the Neolithic site of Dadiwan in Gansu Province. This is reported by Xinhua News Agency, a partner of TV BRICS.
Dadiwan is one of the largest and best-preserved Neolithic sites in China. In particular, the more than 5,000-year-old Dadiwan F901 palace-style ruins site suffered from high humidity due to a sealed glass curtain wall built to protect the site.
Scientists used real-time environmental monitoring and modelling to find solutions to the problem.
They found that louvred windows and replacement of ventilation shutters effectively improved air circulation and reduced humidity levels inside the facility.
This research is significant for the preservation of clay relics in indoor exhibition halls, as it allows for optimal storage conditions.
