Can orchids purify the air? formaldehyde-absorbing evergreen elves

With the improvement of people's living standards, the more luxurious interior decoration will inevitably lead to a rise in emissions of carbon dioxide, formaldehyde and other exhaust gas, so that the purification capacity of nature is not enough to purify indoor air. As a result, many people began to plant green plants such as orchids. But can the orchid purify the air?

The orchid is not only like orchid in shape and bright green in four seasons, but also has strong ability to absorb pollution.

The hanging orchid can absorb and purify all the harmful gases in the experimental container within 24 hours. As long as a pot of orchids is put in the dormitory, harmful gases such as carbon monoxide and nitrogen peroxide emitted by indoor electrical appliances, stoves, plastic products and paints can be absorbed and transported to the roots within one day, and then decomposed into harmless substances by microorganisms in the soil, which are absorbed as nutrients.

In its own metabolism, Cymbidium can also convert the carcinogenic formaldehyde in the air into sugars and amino acids. And can decompose the benzene emitted by photocopiers and printers, but also "swallow" nicotine and so on.

In a room of about 10 square meters, as long as there is a pot of hanging orchids, it is equivalent to installing an air purifier, which is enough to offset the negative effects of harmful gases. Scientists also put several pots of orchids in a closed environment such as the airtight capsule of the space shuttle, and 12 hours later, harmful gases such as carbon monoxide, nitrous oxide and formaldehyde were reduced by 85%.

It can be seen that the hanging orchid as a household plant can purify the indoor air. It absorbs harmful substances from the air through its own metabolism, which keeps friends away from the damage of decoration chemicals at home, and makes friends who enter the home as if they have entered another world full of fresh gases.
