With the frequent outbreaks of poisoning incidents caused by excessive formaldehyde, we have a clearer understanding of the hazards of formaldehyde. Therefore, the treatment of formaldehyde and controlling the formaldehyde concentration in a safe range is what we must do, but the formaldehyde treatment used by many people is almost useless, but it will make us relax our vigilance against formaldehyde, which is not shallow, such as the following formaldehyde treatment methods.
Peel removal of formaldehyde: Let's talk about the conclusion first, this is a typical self-deception of covering ears and stealing bells. This method essentially uses the smell of the peel itself to mask the smell of formaldehyde, although formaldehyde cannot be smelled, but formaldehyde is still there. The disadvantage of this method is that it psychologically makes us think that there is no formaldehyde, so that we can be poisoned by formaldehyde unknowingly.
Water to remove formaldehyde: Since formaldehyde is easily soluble in water, some people have come up with the idea of using water to adsorb formaldehyde. First of all, the contact area between water and air is very small, so naturally it can't adsorb much formaldehyde.
Tea removal of formaldehyde: Some people will say that tea can adsorb formaldehyde. But in fact, the pores of tea are very large, and formaldehyde can only be adsorbed by pores about the same diameter, so formaldehyde will not be adsorbed by tea. Even if formaldehyde enters the inside of the tea, it is one end in and that one end out, and it cannot stay inside the tea at all.
Formaldehyde removal by green plants: It is true that green plants degrade formaldehyde through their own metabolic reactions and microorganisms, and have a certain adsorption capacity for formaldehyde, but their adsorption capacity for formaldehyde is negligible. According to research, the amount of green plants purified in a day is only a moment after we breathe, and the purification area is very small, unless you live in a botanical garden, it is tantamount to a fantasy for green plants to remove formaldehyde.
Indoor environmental protection experts said that air purifiers can be used to treat formaldehyde, such as the German Seiko Norsenberg air purifier, which has developed a purification method of adsorption + decomposition for formaldehyde, which can not only quickly adsorb formaldehyde, but also decompose formaldehyde into carbon dioxide and water, so as to continuously reduce formaldehyde concentration and ensure our healthy breathing.
