Detection and treatment of formaldehyde is an important measure to protect family health.

With the wide application of modern building materials, formaldehyde pollution has become one of the important factors affecting family health. Formaldehyde is a poisonous and harmful gas. Long-term exposure to formaldehyde pollution can lead to headaches, sore throats, allergies and other symptoms, and even lead to serious diseases such as cancer. Therefore, the detection and treatment of formaldehyde has become an important measure to protect family health.

Ant aldehyde test

Formaldehyde detection is the process of detecting formaldehyde concentration in indoor air. There are two common detection methods:

1. Instrument detection method

Instrument detection method refers to the use of professional formaldehyde detection instruments to determine whether there is formaldehyde pollution in the room by measuring the concentration of formaldehyde in the air. This method has high accuracy, but it needs professional operation and the detection cost is high.

2.DIY detection method

DIY detection method refers to the use of self-purchased formaldehyde detection box to judge whether there is formaldehyde pollution in the room through the discoloration of reagents in the box. This method is simple in operation, low in cost, but low in accuracy.

Formaldehyde treatment

If the test results show that there is formaldehyde pollution in the room, formaldehyde treatment is needed. Common governance methods are as follows:

1. Ventilation method

Ventilation means to exchange indoor air with outdoor fresh air by opening windows and installing fresh air systems, so as to reduce indoor formaldehyde concentration. This method is simple, but we need to pay attention to the weather and the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor.

2. Activated carbon adsorption method

Activated carbon adsorption method refers to the use of activated carbon and other adsorbents to adsorb indoor formaldehyde and reduce indoor formaldehyde concentration. This method is simple and effective, but the adsorbent needs to be replaced regularly.

3. Ultraviolet photolysis

Ultraviolet photolysis refers to the photolysis of indoor formaldehyde with ultraviolet lamp and its decomposition into harmless substances. This method has obvious effect, but we should pay attention to the safe use of ultraviolet lamp.
