室内植物的神奇功能

Based on preliminary1 evaluations of the use of common indoor plants for indoor air purification and revitalization, ALCA joined NASA to fund a study using about a dozen popular varieties of ornamental plants to determine their effectiveness in removing several key pollutants associated with indoor air pollution. NASA research on indoor plants has found that living plants are so efficient at absorbing contaminants in the air that some will be launched into space as part of the biological life support system aboard future orbiting space stations. 基于对使用普通室内植物净化室内空气和再生新鲜空气的初步评估，美国园林产业联合会与美国国家航空航天局共同赞助了一项研究。该研究用约12种常见的观赏植物，测定它们清除与室内空气污染相关的几种主要污染物的效力。美国国家航空航天局的室内植物研究发现：活的植物吸收空气中的污染物非常有效。一些植物将会被送上太空，作为未来轨道空间站上生物生命保障系统的一部分。

While more research is needed, Wolverton says the study has shown that common indoor landscaping plants can remove certain pollutants from the indoor environment. "We feel that future results will provide an even stronger argument that common indoor landscaping plants can be a very effective part of a system used to provide pollution free homes and work places," he concludes. 虽然还需要进一步的研究，但是沃尔弗顿说：这项研究已经表明，普通室内观赏植物能够清除室内环境中的某些污染物。他的结论是：“我们认为，未来的研究成果将会更有力地证明，普通室内观赏植物可以作为一个系统的一部分发挥效力，营造无污染的住所和工作场所。”
