Can ornamental potted plants remove volatile organic compounds from indoor air? A review.
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are found in indoor air, and many of these can affect human health (e.g. formaldehyde and benzene are carcinogenic). Plants affect the levels of VOCs in indoor environments, thus they represent a potential green solution for improving indoor air quality that at the same time can improve human health. This article reviews scientific studies of plants' ability to...
متن کاملFeasibility study of benzene and toluene removal from air by phytoremediation
Introduction: Phytoremediation is one of the available techniques for removing the volatile organic compound from the air. Benzene and toluene are volatile organic compounds that exist in many occupational environments. Plants are able to reduce benzene and toluene in the air and the use of plants is a simple and consistent solution for the nature to reduce these compositions in the air and imp...
متن کاملکارآیی گیاهان گلخانه‌ای دراسنا و عشقه در کاهش بنزن موجود در هوا
Background:Benzene, as a carcinogen, is a volatile substance emitted in many workplaces including large plants, small factories, laboratories, hospitals, offices, and even homes. To assess the ability of Dracaena deremensis and Hedera helix plants for removing benzene, this study was conducted. Methods:In a laboratory trial study,6 two-year old plants were exposed to 46 microliter of benzene i...
متن کاملIndoor air quality investigation on commercial aircraft.
Sixteen flights had been investigated for indoor air quality (IAQ) on Cathay Pacific aircraft from June 1996 to August 1997. In general, the air quality on Cathay Pacific aircraft was within relevant air quality standards because the average age of aircraft was less than 2 years. Carbon dioxide (CO2) levels on all flights measured were below the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) standard (3...
متن کاملEvaluation of a passive air sampler for measuring indoor formaldehyde.
A passive air sampler, using 4-amino-3-hydrazino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole, was evaluated for the determination of formaldehyde in indoor environments. Chromatography paper cleaned using a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution was experimentally determined as being the optimum absorption filter for the collection of formaldehyde (0.05 microg cm(-2) formaldehyde). From a linear-regression analysis betwe...
