This study explores the effectiveness of a botanical bioscrubber system using Golden Pothos (Epipremnum aureum) in hydroponic setups to mitigate common indoor atmospheric pollutants. Over a 100-day operation, levels of SO, NO, O, TVOC, CO, CO, PM, and PM were monitored, with a significant reduction in carbon-based compounds and particulate matter-. Notably, CO and PM removal efficiencies were significantly correlated with the foliar area, suggesting that the interaction between pollutants and plant leaves plays a crucial role in the phytoremediation process.
