Indoor plants that purify the air
Various household appliances, plastic furniture, chipboard furniture, linoleum, panels, paint, wallpaper, washing powders and detergents — all this saturates the air in apartments and offices with toxic compounds: benzene, toluene, phenol, formaldehyde, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides and ammonia.
Schefflera (Schéfflera, or umbrella tree) — literally created for smoking rooms. It perfectly "assimilates" and neutralizes nicotine and tar contained in tobacco smoke.
Golden scindapsus (Epipremnum aureum, or potos) cleanses the air from benzene. Extensive leaves perceive a large amount of this substance. It grows quickly, and it can be watered quite rarely.
Dracaena neutralizes formaldehyde. This plant eliminates toxic formaldehyde vapors, which in minimal quantities, but still spread varnishes, adhesives and chipboard furniture.
Chlorophytum (Chlorophytum, or corolla) captures exhaust gases very effectively. Therefore, this plant is simply necessary for those who live on the first or second floor.
Chamaedorea elegant (Chamaedorea elegans, or indoor palm) actively moisturizes the air and filters out substances released by plastic.
Ivy (Hedera helix) is one of the record holders in air purification. It absorbs a lot of toxic substances, including formaldehyde, benzene and ammonia.
Ficus Benjamin (Ficus benjamina) is the second record holder in air purification. Like ivy, it absorbs a lot of toxic substances, and also attracts dust like a magnet.
