A STUDY ON REDUCTION EFFECT OF INDOOR AIR POLLUTANTS IN SPRING BY PLANTS

This study explored the reduction effect of indoor pollutants by the kinds of plant. The effect of reducingthe concentration of air contaminants by three species of plants was studied in a full-scale mock-upmodel. Aglaonema brevispathum, Pachira aquatica and Ficus benjamiana were used. Their positionsand amount were controlled. Field measurements were performed in models where the plants wereplaced and were not. The dimensions of the two models were equal.
