• Resumen

  • Many developing and developed countries are facing the challenges of high levels of air pollution. The use of techniques to control air pollution have increasing value in contemporary communities. Active phytosystem biofiltration is an emergent technology. There are currently few botanical indoor air filtration systems that are available commercially. Although many studies and technological developments have been made on the design and operations of polluted air treatment using phytosystem processes, a comprehensive examination of these active phytosystem case studies is lacking. Examples of the current in situ implementations of phytosystem technology is presented here, including laboratory prototypes that demonstrate significant air pollution removal potential, and systems that have been proven in practice. The contents will cover both the design and the stated pollutant removal efficiency of the phytosystems described in the existing scientific literature, as well as outlining some of the existing commercial botanical biofilter phytosystems on the market.
