This chart highlights the top 10 houseplants for benzene removal, ranked by the total amount removed in micrograms (μg).

Benzene is a harmful volatile organic compound (VOC) commonly found in:

• Tobacco smoke

• Paints and varnishes

• Detergents and adhesives

• Car exhaust and industrial emissions

By sorting the data in descending order, this visualization identifies the most effective plants at filtering benzene from the air.

• Gerbera daisy and Pot mum lead the list, demonstrating the highest benzene absorption capacity.

• These plants may be ideal choices for environments with elevated VOC levels, such as newly painted rooms or urban apartments.

This insight is valuable for selecting plants not only for decoration but also for practical indoor air purification based on specific pollutant types.
