This is part of the project “Fytorremediation of air and water by means of living walls” financed by the Andalusian Plan of Research, development and innovation 2020 (grant number P18-TP-1657) in the 2018 call for Research projects for universities and qualified public research entities as agents of the Andalusian Knowledge System (Junta de Andalucía, Spain). As vegetation can act as a biofilter capturing air pollutants, this study aims to assess the effectiveness of a living wall module in the removal of the Total Volatile Organic Compounds (TVOCs) for IAQ improvement. An airtight glass chamber was used to release contaminants, monitoring the TVOCs both with the chamber empty (control) and with a small Fytotextile® living wall module planted with Nephrolepis exaltata L. A substantial reduction of TVOCs was observed when the living wall was inside the chamber. In few hours, TVOCs levels were reduced below the recommended limit (following Spanish regulations).Concentrations of volatile organic gases (TVOCs), such as: Hexane; Dichloromethane; Isopropylene; Formaldehyde and Acetone, were used in a closed glass chamber with a vertical garden module planted with Nephrolepis exaltata L. The ability of the plants to reduce the concentration of TVOCs was evaluated.application/vnd.ms-excelengAtribución-NoComercial-ShareAlike 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/Jardines verticalesMedioambiente interiorTVOCn-HexanoNephrolepis exaltataFytotextilevertical greening systemsIndoor environmentinfo:eu-repo/semantics/datasetinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttps://doi.org/10.12795/11441/153384
