Volcanic Smog Air Purifiers and Gases.
Volcanic smog (VOG) and gases pose serious hazards to the human and animal health.
Volcanic Gases
The hazardous chemicals in volcanic gases predominantly consist of:Sulfur Dioxide - has a biting, choking odor you smell when visit the volcano's crater or when you just lit a kitchen matches.
Hydrogen Sulfide - the gas with the rotten egg smell.
Carbon Dioxide - the gas dissolved in soda, beer, sparkling wine to produce bubbles.
Remedy: Effective removal of these and many other gases from volcanic smog is simply impossible without using large amount of specially formulated adsorbent. Therefore, large amount of adsorbent available in AirPura air purifiers, AllerAir air purifiers and Austin Air purifiers is absolutely critical for effective and long lasting removal of volcanic gases from the polluted air.
Volcanic Smog (VOG)
Volcanic smog (VOG) is a mixture of gases with aerosols (tiny particles and droplets) formed when volcanic gases (nitrogen oxides) reacts with moisture, oxygen and sunlight. According to recent studies, this unique mixture of gases and aerosols makes VOG potentially more harmful than either gases or particles alone. Most of the aerosols are acidic in nature and are of a size, that is readily retained by the lungs. Studies done in urban areas having similar pollutants, show that these types of aerosols degrade lung function.
VOG can cause eyes, skin and lungs irritation. It can compromise human's immune system and cause even more serious health problems, such as asthma, lung cancer, bronchitis. Lungs can be permanently damaged after long exposure to VOG. These effects are especially pronounced for children, individuals who have chronic asthma or other respiratory impairments, or those with circulatory problems.
Remedy: While large amount of activated carbon is absolutely critical for effective removal of most chemicals in volcanic smog, true HEPA filter is essential for guaranteed trapping from the polluted air of all microscopic solid particles, fine ash and aerosols.
Therefore, the combination of both, true HEPA filter and large amount of specialty formulated adsorbent in the air purifier's air filtration system will render the best possible air cleaning result in purifying the air from volcanic smog and gases, and provide the best protection for you and your family from hazards of volcanic smog.
Air Flow Rate
The number of times per hour the air purifier can draw the entire volume of polluted air through the air filtration system is another critical factor that directly affects the overall air cleaning result.For that reason, the air purifiers with the higher Air Flow rate, that are capable to provide the highest number of air changes per hour in the room, are much better choice air purifiers for cleaning the air in your house or office from volcanic smog (VOG) and gases.
