What to do if there is formaldehyde in the house

What should I do if there is formaldehyde in the house? ——Full analysis of 10 days of popular aldehyde removal methods

Recently, the issue of formaldehyde pollution has once again become the focus of heated discussions across the Internet. As the hot weather continues in summer, the release of formaldehyde accelerates, and many homes and offices face air safety hazards. This article will provide you with structured solutions based on the hot discussion data of the entire network in the past 10 days.

1. Analysis of the popularity of formaldehyde issues across the entire network (last 10 days)

2. Three major misunderstandings about the hazards of formaldehyde

1."No smell = safe": Formaldehyde may have no obvious smell when it is 0.1-0.3mg/m³, but it has exceeded the standard by 2-3 times (national standard 0.08mg/m³)

2."There is no formaldehyde in old houses": 37.2% of the houses that have been renovated within 3 years still exceed the standard, and the formaldehyde release period of the boards can reach 3-15 years.

3."Green plants are enough for purification": Experiments show that 10 square meters of space requires 30 pots of pothos to achieve the theoretical purification effect.

3. Comparison of the effects of mainstream aldehyde removal methods in 2023

4. Scenario solutions

1.New Home Emergency Move-in Program: High temperature fumigation (above 50℃) + industrial fan ventilation + photocatalyst spraying, the concentration can be reduced by 60% within 3 days

2.Mother and baby family program: Air purifier turned on 24 hours a day (CADR value ≥ 400) + detector monitoring once a week

3.Office plan: Activated carbon bag (1kg per 5㎡) + window opening at noon for ventilation + green plant assistance

5. Evaluation of new aldehyde removal technology in 2023

1.Nano mineral crystal: The adsorption capacity is 3-5 times that of activated carbon, but it needs to be regenerated by exposure to the sun every month.

2.Biological enzyme decomposition: The decomposition rate is 92% in 48 hours, but the ambient humidity must be maintained above 60%

3.graphene filter: Washable and reusable, filtration rate of 0.1nm particles is 99.7%

6. 5 key steps suggested by experts

1. Test first: Test by a professional institution or rent a Japanese Riken tester (error ±5%)

2. Locating pollution sources: focus on checking density board furniture, composite floors, and wall glue

3. Staged treatment: ventilation + purifier in acute stage (1-7 days), continuous adsorption in chronic stage (1-6 months)

4. Dynamic monitoring: Test once a week after treatment. Only if the standard is met for 3 consecutive weeks will it be considered qualified.

5. Prevent recurrence: Ventilate for no less than 4 hours a day on hot summer days

Recent actual measurement data from netizens show that for households that adopt the "photocatalyst + ventilation" combination plan, the formaldehyde compliance rate within 7 days can reach 78.6%. Special reminder: Traditional methods such as grapefruit peel and vinegar fumigation have been proven to be ineffective and may cause secondary pollution. It is recommended to choose a scientific management plan based on the actual situation to protect the health of your family.
