The use of reactive coatings on filters for the removal of indoor gaseous pollutants
Abstract We have shown that formaldehyde can be removed from the air when the fibre-glass filters are coated with the polymer polyethylenimine, mixed with glycerol to keep it from hardening. By increasing the amount of polymer applied to the filter, it has been possible to extend the life of the coating to almost four months during which time the level of formaldehyde in the house is well within acceptable levels. It was also shown that in the process of air-conditioning a house or dehumidifying the air, the formation of water of condensation will remove part of the water soluble pollutants in the air.
