Adsorption purification of indoor air, mainly from formaldehyde.

Author(s) : CHIRKOVA J., ANDERSON B., DRUZ N., et al.

Summary

Formaldehyde (FA) adsorption, including that in the presence of water vapour, has been evaluated on sorbents of various types and porous structure. The efficiency of porous absorbents (active carbon, silica-gel) with a pore size of 2-200 nm, providing rapid adsorption of low PA concentrations from dry air and a high sorption from the FA-water mixture, has been demonstrated. Recommendations on the practical use of absorbents for indoor purification have been given.
