One Possible Source of indoor air pollution is gasoline engine of motor vehicle. High cerbon mo¬noxide (CO) concentration raises the Ievel of CO Hb in the blood, thus causing health disruption ranging from headache to death. One of the efforts which can be applied to Cope the problem is utilizing CO absorber plants such as yellow palm (Chrysalidocarpus lutescens), suji leaves (Dcacena deromensis) and ferns (Nephrolepis exaltata).

The research was aimed to refeal the ability of the three plants in reducing CO Concentration, and also to know which plant has the highest absorbing power. The study was an experiment which employed pre test-post test with control group design, and for each type of plant, there were five replications. Motorcycle engine used in the research as the Pollution source was ignited for 30 minutes before the subsequent exhaust gas were exposed in one hour to the experiment room which had the dimension of 3 m length, 2 m width and 2 m height.

The results showed thai the decrease of CO cancenlcation among the three plants were 76,14 % for Chrysalidocarpus lutescens, 81,18 % for Dracaena demmensis, and 84,08 % for Nephrolepis exaltata, and the stalistical test proved that those percentage were significantly different (p
