How Indoor Plants Improve Quality of Air?

People are working indoors not outdoors. Obviously, they need a fresh environment for healthy work. Plants are well-recognized for their improvement properties. They can change the air by absorbing all of its chemicals and make it fresh for you to breathe in. Today, indoor environments are completely sealed because of Air Conditions and possess synthetic material that reveal chemicals into air. These chemicals are named as VOCs (volatile organic compounds).

Research has proved that indoor plants have the power to remove chemicals from air. VOCs are present in bulk in air and that are caused due to material present at that particular place. Indoor Plants reduce the concentration of VOCs from air and this is how they enhance the quality of air. Their properties are enough to fight against chemicals and making the air free from it.

Synthetic materials of office includes computers, printers, personal care, cleaners and building material. All these material create various types of chemicals like adhesives, printers benzene, ceiling tiles, xylene, toluene and particle board. Data shows that there are more than 300 VOCs present in the office environment. More than 90% people spent their time at indoor environment which means a continuous absorption of harmful chemicals through air. In 1980, Dr. Wolverton working in NASA proved that indoor plants can remove VOCs from sealed environment. The same property is contained by anthurium plant, but it is an outdoor plant.

Reports say that many people suffering from arthritis and rheumatism diseases make the use of Anthurium Plants. Leaves of this plants are truly beneficial for such types of diseases. People cut the leaves of this plant and boil them in a pot. They put a chair over this pot and sitting upon it with a blanket.
