Description:

This paper discusses the possibilities and limitations of using biophilic installations to improve the indoor air quality in residential and commercial spaces. Modular plant systems can provide the support or, in smaller facilities, even an alternative to the conventional indoor air purification techniques, such as filtration. The unquestionable advantage of green walls is their comprehensive influence on the indoor air quality by shaping both appropriate thermal and humidity conditions as well as the chemical air composition. However, these constructions are not mechanical systems and therefore, the effectiveness of these specific types of living air purifiers in removing gaseous pollutants and particulate matter cannot be expected to match the level of traditional systems.
