Contrary to popular belief, no plant can produce 24-hour oxygen. All plants, like humans, carry out photosynthesis during the day and respiration at night. During photosynthesis, plants release oxygen as a byproduct, but at night, when there is no sunlight, they absorb oxygen and release carbon dioxide, just like humans.
However, certain indoor plants are more efficient at producing oxygen during the day and are good air purifiers, which can result in increased oxygen levels and improved air quality. Here are some of the plants that are known to be good air purifiers and produce a significant amount of oxygen during the day:
Areca Palm (Dypsis lutescens)
Snake Plant (Sansevieria trifasciata)
Money Plant (Epipremnum aureum)
Bamboo Palm (Chamaedorea seifrizii)
Spider Plant (Chlorophytum comosum)
Aloe Vera (Aloe barbadensis)
Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum wallisii)
These plants can be effective in reducing indoor air pollution and improving air quality, which can have a positive impact on our health and well-being. However, it is important to note that having a few plants in a room cannot replace proper ventilation and air filtration systems, especially in areas with high levels of pollution.
