01. Aloe vera: As an air purification expert, a pot of aloe vera can be equivalent to nine biological air cleaners. This pot of aloe vera can absorb carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, formaldehyde, carbon monoxide and other harmful gases in the air, especially the absorption capacity of formaldehyde harmful bodies is particularly strong.

A pot of aloe vera can eliminate 90% of the formaldehyde in one square meter of air for 4 hours, and can also kill harmful microorganisms in the air and adsorb dust, which has a great effect on purifying the living environment. In addition, it is also a display of air quality: when the concentration of harmful substances in the indoor air is too high, the leaves of the aloe vera will appear spots, which is a distress signal to remind us to add a few more pots of aloe vera indoors to strengthen the efforts to improve indoor air quality.

02. Spider plant: Oxygen generator and absorber spider plant can also photosynthesize to produce oxygen in weak light, and the ability to absorb toxic gases is also very strong. In fact, a pot of spider plants in the home can act as an air purifier in a room of 8 to 10 square meters, because spider plants can absorb 95 percent of carbon monoxide and 85 percent of formaldehyde in the air.

It can also decompose benzene and absorb relatively stable harmful substances such as styrene and nicotine in cigarette smoke.

03. Orchid: The freshener that absorbs smoke can also photosynthesize in extremely weak light, and the carbon dioxide emitted by its respiration at night is almost negligible. An adult orchid can absorb 1 liter of air and release 80% of oxygen in a day and night, and two or three pots of orchid can absorb the indoor smoke in a room of more than ten square meters.

04. Rubber tree: The all-rounder rubber tree is an all-rounder that eliminates harmful air, and has a certain absorption power for harmful gases such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen fluoride in the air. In addition, it can also eliminate inhalable particulate pollution, which can effectively trap indoor dust.

I think planting rich trees, rich bamboo, these plants can purify the air in the home. Because these plants have a relatively high chloroplast content, they photosynthesize when the sun comes out, absorbing carbon dioxide and other harmful substances in the house, and then producing oxygen.

There is poor air circulation in the home, especially in winter, when the doors and windows are closed. So planting some greenery can make the air fresh in the house. It is recommended to plant a variety of pothos, and you can also plant some spider plants.

Spider plant can absorb formaldehyde and carbon dioxide harmful gases in the home, aloe vera can sterilize, peppermint can purify the air, and evergreen can increase the oxygen content in the air and make the air at home fresher.

You can plant some pothos at home, which can purify the air and absorb formaldehyde, which is also easier to take care of, and has a strong vitality.

Spider plant is a very common green plant, when we live in a new house, or just renovated house, need to put a few pots of green plants, first of all, you can choose a pot of spider plant, whether it is a Phnom Penh spider plant, or a golden heart spider plant, maintenance is extremely worry-free, usually watering on it.

Most plants have the function of improving the air in the house, but it would be a mistake to think that you can sit back and relax by placing some plants indoors.

Many consumers have a lot of misunderstandings about the knowledge of indoor air pollution, and think that putting some plants in the room can remove harmful gases such as formaldehyde is a typical one. In fact, the effect of plants in removing harmful gases is very limited, and at best it can only be used as an auxiliary means of indoor environmental treatment. To put it more explicitly, only when the indoor air is mildly polluted, can plants play a small role in removing odors.

When indoor air pollution is severe, plants are powerless, and even the plants themselves are fumigated to death by harmful gases; What's more, even if plants are absorbing harmful gases, aren't people also absorbing harmful gases? Therefore, one should not leave the task of controlling harmful gases entirely to plants.
