After the new house is renovated, the removal of formaldehyde has become a problem that we have to face. Formaldehyde is the most common indoor air pollutant, mainly in the formaldehyde release of building materials such as decoration and furniture, according to the survey, 70% and 80% of the new houses have the problem of excessive formaldehyde.
Long-term exposure to formaldehyde will cause serious harm to human health, such as irritation of the eyes, nose and throat, causing headaches, dizziness, nausea and other symptoms, and even increase the risk of cancer and leukemia in severe cases, so in order to protect the health of the family, formaldehyde removal in the new house has become a necessary task.
Here are a few governance methods that seem to be efficient:
**First, ventilation**
The simplest and most effective way to do this is to ventilate. After the decoration is completed, the windows should be opened frequently for ventilation, so that the indoor air can be convection, and harmful gases such as formaldehyde should be discharged outside. Especially in summer and winter, it is necessary to avoid closing doors and windows for a long time, so as not to cause an increase in indoor formaldehyde concentration.
**Second, plant purification**
Some plants have a good formaldehyde absorption capacity, such as spider plant, pothos, aloe vera, etc. Placing these plants in the new house can not only play a role in beautifying the indoor environment, but also absorb indoor formaldehyde and reduce indoor pollution. It should be noted that plants have a limited effect on air purification, and cannot rely solely on plants to solve the formaldehyde problem.
3. Physical adsorption
Activated carbon is a widely used adsorption material, which has a rich pore structure and can effectively adsorb harmful substances such as formaldehyde, but the adsorption capacity of activated carbon is limited, and it needs to be dried and replaced frequently, otherwise it is easy to cause secondary pollution; In addition, you can also use Ruishi, which is a new type of adsorption material, not easy to saturate, can last for 2-3 years, the purification effect is more sustainable, and the aldehyde removal effect is also better.
Fourth, chemical decomposition**
Chemical decomposition is an emerging formaldehyde removal technology, which uses the principle of chemical decomposition to decompose formaldehyde into harmless substances, and the spray design is also easy to operate. Muguanglan is one of the easier to use aldehyde removal spray, which can be sprayed on various furniture, floors, etc. to treat formaldehyde, can penetrate into the substrate to decompose formaldehyde, and the effect of removing formaldehyde is fast and good.
**Fifth, carefully choose decoration materials**
Solving the problem at the source is the most fundamental way. When decorating, we should choose environmentally friendly building materials that meet national standards, and try to avoid using materials containing harmful substances such as formaldehyde. At the same time, it is necessary to pay attention to the formaldehyde emission of furniture, and try to choose products that meet environmental protection standards. After the decoration is completed, a professional indoor air testing agency can be commissioned to test the indoor air quality to ensure the safety of the indoor environment.
Formaldehyde removal in new houses is an important task, related to the health and quality of life of the family, we must take it seriously, it is recommended that we take a variety of methods to deal with the form of governance, the speed and effect of formaldehyde removal will be better, in addition to remember to search for the major platforms to choose will be more secure.
