2. For some residents who use water, vinegar and onions to detoxify newly renovated houses, experts believe that these practices are of no help, and chemicals such as formaldehyde and benzene are insoluble in water. These practices can only temporarily cover up the taste of "decoration gas".
Experts suggest that house decoration should be more decorative than decorative, and the decoration materials should be diversified as much as possible to avoid piling up a large number of large core boards; When buying decoration materials, be sure to ask whether each material meets the national health and safety standards; After the renovation of the new house, it is necessary to set aside some time for ventilation to allow harmful gases to volatilize.
3. The smell of indoor decoration is pungent, and it is likely that the air contains toxic substances such as formaldehyde and benzene. How can we get rid of these toxic gases?
I put more than twenty pots of aloe and chlorophytum in the newly renovated house. These green plants helped Miss He take drugs for four months. She feels that the smell in the room is less than aloe vera and chlorophytum. Another Mr. Wang also recommended ivy and tiger orchid. Ms. Han recommended onions, picked onions the size of fists, cut them into pieces, put one piece in each room, and then kept the room ventilated, and the effect was good.
4. What flowers and plants should be put in the living room to detoxify?
The smell of new house, new decoration and new furniture has not been exhausted, and people may live in it. If proper New Year flowers are placed, such as chlorophytum and Rhizoma Arisaematis, it can not only decorate the home, but also remove the toxic gas released by decoration materials and furniture. Some flowers are really addicts: chlorophytum can absorb 95% carbon monoxide and 85% formaldehyde in the air. Rhizoma arisaematis can absorb 80% benzene and 50% trichloroethylene in the air. Magnolia grandiflora can absorb carbon dioxide and chlorine. Whelan can effectively absorb fluorine and sulfur dioxide in the air. In addition, regardless of the old house, it is best to put rutaceae plants such as Kumquat, Four Seasons Orange and Cinnabar Orange, which are rich in oil bracts, can inhibit bacteria, effectively prevent mildew and colds, and have a fresh smell.
Green plants have a good purification effect on indoor polluted air. William Warwell, an American scientist, has found through years of experiments that all kinds of colorful plants can effectively absorb chemicals in the air and convert them into their own nutrients: under the condition of 24-hour illumination, aloe has eliminated 90% of aldehydes contained in 1 m3 air, ivy has eliminated 90% of benzene, and agave can swallow 70% of benzene and 50%.
Surprisingly, green plants have a strong ability to absorb harmful substances. In fact, the ability of green plants to inhale chemicals mostly comes from microorganisms in potted soil, not mainly from leaves. In the living room, planting one or two pots of flowers and plants every 10 square meter can basically eliminate pollution.
Flowers and plants that can purify the indoor environment are: aloe, chlorophytum and Eupatorium odoratum, which can remove formaldehyde. 15 square meter living room, planting two pots of Sansevieria or Chlorophytum can keep the air fresh and free of formaldehyde. Huwei orchid can also release a lot of oxygen during the day. Chlorophytum can also release fungicides to kill germs. If there are enough chlorophytum indoors, 80% of harmful substances will be killed within 24 hours. Chlorophytum can also absorb carbon dioxide effectively.
Zi Yuan, Astragalus membranaceus, tobacco and Celosia cristata, these plants can absorb a lot of radionuclides such as uranium.
Ivy, rose, rose, aloe and evergreen can effectively remove trichloroethylene, hydrogen sulfide, benzene, phenol, hydrogen fluoride and ether indoors.
Eucalyptus, asparagus, spurge and cactus can kill germs. Asparagus can also remove heavy metal particles.
Ivy, fig, Penglai banana and aloe can not only deal with harmful substances such as bacteria brought back from outdoors, but also absorb dust that is difficult for even a vacuum cleaner to absorb.
Phyllostachys pubescens, Eupatorium odoratum and Eupatorium odoratum can absorb more than 80% of indoor harmful gases.
Citrus, rosemary and chlorophytum can greatly reduce bacteria and microorganisms in indoor air.
Roses can absorb more harmful gases, such as hydrogen sulfide, benzene, phenol, hydrogen chloride, ether and so on.
Wisteria has strong resistance to sulfur dioxide, chlorine and hydrogen fluoride, and also has certain resistance to chromium.
In order to effectively remove all kinds of pollutants in the office, different kinds of flowers and trees should be placed at the same time, and at least 1 2 kinds of pollution control flowers and trees should be placed every 10 square meter. Ornamental plants suitable for planting in the office are:
Chlorophytum, Gerbera jamesonii and ornamental birch without flowers: mainly absorb formaldehyde, decompose benzene discharged from photocopiers and printers and swallow nicotine.
Ear fern, ivy, cycad and chrysanthemum can decompose three harmful substances, namely formaldehyde in carpets, insulating materials and plywood, xylene hidden in wallpaper and printing ink solvents that is harmful to the kidneys, and toluene hidden in dyes and detergents.
Red zygomatic flower: it can absorb xylene, toluene and ammonia in chemical fiber, solvent and paint.
Dracaena (Brazilian iron), Daisy and Evergreen: It can remove trichloroethylene from photocopiers, laser printers, detergents and adhesives.
Zhang Youde, a professor of botany at South China Academy of Biological Sciences, also believes that many green plants can purify the air, but they must have a considerable number to be effective.
"This is more a reflection of people's good wishes." Engineer Shen believes. After the renovation of new houses, the indoor air quality is difficult to meet the standard, which has always been a big worry for the citizens. The municipal environmental monitoring station monitored the air quality of more than 70 families in the city within two years, and 20%-30% of them exceeded the standard for formaldehyde, benzene and xylene.
He said: The best way to "detoxify" a renovated new house is ventilation, or go to a chemical store to buy a piece of black activated carbon. It doesn't look good, but it works well. After use, it can be reused by drying it in the sun.
You can also cut onions into small pieces, soak them in water, and absorb decoration air, especially when the furniture you just bought smells, which is quite effective.
5, indoor prevention:
If there are frail old people and children at home, be more careful when you check in! You can buy fresh aloe, chlorophytum, taro with silver bracts, etc. , can discharge formaldehyde. Putting a pot of chlorophytum in the room can absorb harmful gases such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides in the room within 24 hours and play the role of an air filter. You can try. In addition, don't stay for a short time (usually within three months after renovation). Usually open more windows for ventilation.
1, black tea, soaked in a basin and placed indoors, can absorb odor. (Tea powder can also be sprinkled in the room)
2, onions, sliced, sprinkled indoors or in cabinets, can absorb odor.
3, pineapple, sliced, sprinkled indoors or in the cabinet, can absorb odor.
4.300 grams of black tea is soaked in two washbasins of hot tea, put into the living room, and open the window for ventilation. Within 48 hours, the indoor formaldehyde content decreased by more than 90%, and the pungent odor was basically eliminated.
5. Buy 800g granular activated carbon in addition to formaldehyde. Divide the activated carbon into 8 parts, put them on plates, and put two or three plates in each room, which can basically remove indoor odor in 72 hours.
6. Prepare 400g coal ash, repackage it with washbasin, and put it in the room where in addition to formaldehyde is needed. The formaldehyde content can be reduced to a safe range within one week. The above methods are also applicable to families without peculiar smell after decoration. After all, some harmful substances are colorless and tasteless. The cleaner, the safer.
7. Putting green plants in the room or bathroom can achieve the effect of regulating air and eliminating odor. It is best to raise a pot of green plants by the window, or put a vase with three or five flowers, which can bring a fresh and pleasant feeling.
Another advertisement is:
1, "Tianyi", bottled deodorant, price 138 yuan a bottle, can spray about 80 flat (tried, but because several methods have been used, I don't know which one works, and the indoor odor is greatly reduced at present).
At present, Duya has introduced a small machine that can be used to decorate smells. Sanlian is on sale, and the price is unknown.
If you put suitable flowers in your home, such as chlorophytum and rhizoma arisaematis, you can not only decorate your home, but also remove toxic gases released by decoration materials and furniture. Some flowers are really addicts: chlorophytum can absorb 95% carbon monoxide and 85% formaldehyde in the air. Rhizoma arisaematis can absorb 80% benzene and 50% trichloroethylene in the air. Magnolia grandiflora can absorb carbon dioxide and chlorine. Whelan can effectively absorb fluorine and sulfur dioxide in the air. In addition, regardless of the old house, it is best to put rutaceae plants such as Kumquat, Four Seasons Orange and Cinnabar Orange, which are rich in oil bracts, can inhibit bacteria, effectively prevent mildew and colds, and have a fresh smell.
But not too much. Because when the light is insufficient, plants mainly breathe, constantly inhale oxygen and release carbon dioxide. If you spend too much indoors, it will increase the concentration of carbon dioxide. Especially at night, plants have a strong respiratory function, which will form a situation of competing with people for oxygen. But there are exceptions Cactus don't compete with people for oxygen. They have no green leaves and can carry out photosynthesis in weak light.
6. In daily life, people want their living room to be fresh, but for some reasons, there is always some peculiar smell in the room. If it is not eliminated, it will not only affect indoor air, but also affect human health, and at the same time, it will also produce bad emotions for itself.
