Nowadays, many decoration materials contain a certain amount of formaldehyde to varying degrees. Although the country has strict regulations on this industry, it is still impossible to completely remove these decoration materials containing harmful substances to human health from the decoration market. Therefore, many people will test the indoor air after decoration. Once formaldehyde is detected, either wait for a period of time before moving in, or use some formaldehyde removal products to clean the air. Among the many products for removing formaldehyde, some people choose activated carbon.

So can activated carbon really remove formaldehyde? Can it achieve the kind of clean air effect that people want? There may still be many people who are not very familiar with this issue. Activated carbon does have the ability to remove formaldehyde, but its effect is not particularly significant and requires people to use it correctly to achieve the desired effect. If activated carbon is used to remove formaldehyde, it can be placed at a distance of about 1.8 meters. This is because formaldehyde has a relatively high density and is usually located in the middle and lower parts of indoor spaces.

In addition, when using activated carbon to clean the air, try to place it in places where people have more daily activities. For example, next to the sofa or bedside. This is mainly because activated carbon only has a relatively good cleaning effect on the surrounding air when cleaning the air, and cannot clean the entire indoor air. Also, after using it for a period of time, such as about twenty days, it is better to keep it in a well ventilated and dry place or expose it to sunlight for several hours. Under normal circumstances, it can be used for more than six months.
