Description

Fine dust reduction device using air plant

The present invention relates to an apparatus for reducing fine dust using aerial plants, and more particularly, by attaching an aerial plant, which is a fine dust reducing plant, to a hanger to remove fine dust, thereby circulating clean air without being contaminated with fine dust. It relates to a device for reducing fine dust using aerial plants.

Recently, attention has been focused on fine dust introduced from China, and the fine dust is also discharged in Korea through harmful gas generating facilities such as automobiles, factories, or incinerators.

Particulate matter (PM) is an air pollutant containing numerous pollutants along with sulfurous acid gas, nitrogen oxides, lead, ozone, and carbon monoxide. It is generated from automobiles and factories and floats in the atmosphere for a long period of time. It refers to dust and is usually referred to as PM-10, and ultrafine dust or ultrafine dust having a particle diameter of 25㎛ or less is referred to as PM-25.

PM-10 refers to fine dust whose particle size is less than 10㎛, penetrates to the alveoli of the human body, is a direct cause of various respiratory diseases, and deteriorates the immune function of the human body. It is based on ㎍/㎥ and an average of 100㎍/㎥ for 24 hours.

PM-25 refers to ultrafine dust with a particle size of 25㎛ or less, and the smaller the particle, the more it penetrates into the alveoli of the human body and is a direct cause of various respiratory diseases, and the risk of weakening the body's immune function is further increased.

In January 2005, an annual average of 25㎍/㎥ and an average of 50㎍/㎥ for 24 hours were announced as environmental standards for ultrafine dust, which is scheduled to be implemented in January 2005. In the United States, the average annual average of 15㎍/㎥ and 24 hours is 35㎍/㎥. Setting standards.

Accordingly, such fine dust is currently being discharged from the exhaust port of a hazardous gas generating facility such as an incinerator as it is, and the gas discharged from the exhaust port of a hazardous gas generating facility such as an incinerator is a cause of increasing domestic fine dust.

As the amount of time spent indoors with such fine dust riding increases, interest in plants that purify indoor air by absorbing fine dust together with an air purifier as shown in the picture of FIG. 1, that is, aerial plants, is also increasing.

The principle of air purification by plants is, first, removal of pollutants by absorption of microorganisms on the leaves and roots. Pollutants absorbed by leaves are used as metabolites of photosynthesis, and those absorbed into pollen soil are removed by microorganisms at the root.

Second, the indoor environment is made comfortable by various plant-releasing substances such as anions, fragrance, oxygen, and moisture. Increasing the amount of light to the leaves increases the rate of photosynthesis and increases the removal capacity. The more often indoor pollutants are treated in the pollen, the more related microorganisms increase at the root, resulting in excellent removal capacity. For reference, indoor air purification plants that perform this function include Areca palm, Tilandsia, coral water, Scandia moss, and the like.

Therefore, the development of a device that can also have the effect of reducing fine dust using such aerial plants is becoming more prominent in connection with the recent fine dust from China.
