Finding F-0310

“Compared with burning a fresh moxa wool without using an air cleaner, the emissions decreased by 22% (from 27 ppm to 21 ppm) for CO2, 4% (from 2.8 ppm to 2.7 ppm) for CO, 13% (from 0.024 ppm to 0.021 ppm) for HCHO, and 35% (from 0.24 ppm to 0.16 ppm) for TVOCs when an air cleaner was used.”

Structure

Factor: Carbon dioxide (CO₂)
Intervention: Air purifiers
Setting: hospital treatment room, TW
Study design: controlled burning tests of moxa wool in a hospital treatment room in Taiwan: emissions of CO2, CO, formaldehyde, TVOC, PM2.5 and PM10 measured without control, with local exhaust ventilation and with an air cleaner (class 4)
Effect: difference 22
Caveat: moxibustion (burning moxa wool) has no Vocabulary slug as a source
