Efficient Purification of Multiple Pollutants of Tobacco Smoke via Photocatalytic Oxidation Purifier

Environmental Science & Technology
Tobacco smoke, a complex mixture of particulate matter (PM) and gaseous pollutants, poses serious health risks and remains a significant challenge for indoor air purification. Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) technology has emerged as an effective strategy for pollutant removal, but its application in real tobacco smoke purification and associated health

[Environmental pollution with tobacco smoke--a threat to human health. Principles for prevention of tobacco smoking].

Folia medica Cracoviensia, 1994
Tobacco smoking is an important pathogenetic factor for man, but it is underestimated in our country. The great spread of this factor justifies the term "tobacco epidemic". Three epidemiological surveys made in Cracow and in the country near Lańcut indicated that 37% of the people smoked tobacco: 42% in the city of Cracow and 29% in the country. In 9.7%

[The tobacco smoke as the main factor of in-door pollution in the aspect of the children health].

Przeglad lekarski, 2006
Taking the tobacco plant will cause close 450 millions of deaths worldwide within 50 closest years. The numerous epidemiological research is pointing that exposing children to the tobacco smoke is involving with more frequent occurrence of lower airways and middle ear diseases, asthma or SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome).

[The environmental risk factors for COPD--tobacco smoke, air pollution, chemicals].

Nihon rinsho. Japanese journal of clinical medicine, 2004
The identification of risk factors is an important step toward developing strategies for prevention and treatment of any disease. The risks of COPD are related to environmental exposures in combination with the genetic makeup of the individual. The principal environmental factor in COPD is well known--exposure to cigarette smoke--and it can be modified.
