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 deromens…
Air pollution in Indonesia is estimated 70% comes from exhauster emission of motor vehicles, of which gasoline contributes for 70% carbon monoxide (CO). One of efforts for controlling exhauster emission is by modifying the exhauster system itself. In this study the modification is conducted by adding cigarette filter as gas adsorbent. The objectives of the study was to determine the effect of a…
