Ozone is more likely to cause asthma than PM2.5! It is most dangerous at 2 pm, and these three household appliances also produce ozone.

Ozone not only appears in the ozone layer, but also may be an air pollutant in our living environment! The harm of ozone is not less than that of PM2.5, especially in autumn, and indoor and outdoor may be doomed. In recent years, people are very concerned about the concentration of PM2.5. Whenever the concentration index of PM2.5 is "purple explosion", people will be afraid that inhaling too much fine suspended particles outdoors will endanger the respiratory and circulatory systems. Of course, PM2.5 deserves our attention, but other air pollution sources, such as ozone and nitrogen dioxide, are gradually ignored. In fact, these substances are also very harmful to the human body. Especially in recent autumn, the harm of ozone has become serious, especially for the elderly, children and people with respiratory diseases such as asthma. They may get asthma from ozone, and once they get asthma, it may be fatal. For example, Taiwan Province's legendary singer Teresa Teng died of an asthma attack. (Editor's recommendation: Air pollution leads to insulin resistance! 3.2 million people suffer from diabetes every year. The harm of ozone is more direct than that of PM2.5, which can increase the incidence of asthma by 3 times and the mortality by 2%. The so-called odor does not refer to ozone in the atmosphere that protects the earth, but refers to the secondary pollutants produced by industrial and automobile exhaust after a series of chemical reactions. Specifically, VOCs (organic volatiles) and nitrogen oxides (nitrogen oxides) in industrial waste gas will be exposed to strong sunlight. VOCs+ nitrogen oxides+heat+sunlight = ozone (O3) The harm of ozone should not be underestimated. According to the The New York Times Chinese website, ozone can cause adverse reactions faster than PM2.5, such as stinging eyes, head discomfort, dry throat, cough, and even a little breathlessness when going out in hot summer, which may be caused by ozone. Ozone can also cause long-term harm. A survey in 2002 found that a group of healthy children exposed to ozone pollution and children who have been exercising outdoors for a long time in Southern California are three times more likely to suffer from asthma than children who often stay indoors! Asthma is a very common disease. According to the statistics of health insurance database in 2007, the prevalence rate of adults is about 1 1.9%, and the prevalence rate of children and adolescents (under 20 years old) is about 15.7%. Asthma patients may attack as long as they encounter pollen, dust, air pollution and other inducing factors. In severe cases, they may suffer from respiratory failure or even death. Taiwan Province legendary singer Teresa Teng died suddenly in Chiang Mai, Thailand due to asthma, which made fans across the Taiwan Strait, Japan, South Korea and Thailand feel sorry. (Editor's recommendation: air conditioners and dehumidifier filters are the favorite of mold! Tan Dunci: If you don't do this, the risk of asthma will increase by 30 times. Ozone has a great influence on your health. Last year, Taiwan Province Healthy Air Action Alliance quoted a report from the World Health Organization, saying that if the average ozone concentration reaches 50ppb (parts per billion) every eight hours, the mortality rate will increase by 1 ~ 2%. Ozone is the most harmful after autumn, and it is the most dangerous at 2 ~ 4 pm. Pay special attention to the harm of ozone in the afternoon. According to the information from the Environmental Protection Bureau of Hsinchu County, the formation of ozone is related to sunshine and temperature, so the highest ozone concentration usually occurs around 2 ~ 4 pm, which is the period with the strongest sunshine and the highest temperature in a day. According to the Facebook powder of WeatherRisk, generally speaking, the higher the temperature, the stronger the sunlight and the higher the ozone concentration. However, in Taiwan Province Province, the highest ozone concentration is not in the hottest summer, but in the autumn when the atmosphere is stable, the temperature is high and the weather is sunny. Because of rainy days, the southwest monsoon takes away air pollutants. It's autumn, so we should pay special attention to the harm of outdoor ozone. When the ozone concentration is high in the afternoon, it is best to avoid going out, especially people with sensitive physique, children and the elderly, and pay more attention to their health. At present, the weather conditions are unpredictable, so it is recommended to download the "Environmental Instant Messaging" mobile APP program (you can download the APP from the QR code on the website of the Environmental Protection Agency), or go to the air quality monitoring website of the Environmental Protection Agency of the Executive Yuan to check the real-time air quality (air.epa.gov/). Reminder: Be careful to fall into the ozone trap while enjoying the cool under the tree. When the sun is very hot, people will hide in the shade to enjoy the cool, but doing so may inhale high concentrations of ozone. The team of Chang Gung Toxicology Laboratory reminded everyone on Lin's page that at the temperature of 35℃, the amount released by trees is 10 times as much as usual. Once there are air pollutants such as nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide in the air, fenduojing will combine with isoprene released by trees to form ozone, which will affect health. Fendoxin will form ozone only when it comes into contact with air pollutants, but it will not form ozone where the air is fresh. Therefore, in places where factories and cars emit a lot of exhaust gas, we should pay attention to avoid hiding in the sun under trees.

Therefore, in places where factories and cars emit a lot of exhaust gas, we should pay attention to avoid hiding in the sun under trees. Air oxygen purifier will also produce ozone, so it is best to choose the model with activated carbon filter as a safe haven to avoid indoor air pollution, but sometimes high concentration of ozone will be produced indoors. Health education materials of Hsinchu County Environmental Protection Bureau show that air purifiers, ozone machines, and laser printers with negative ion functions all produce ozone during use, especially air purifiers and ozone machines. Air Purifier Air Purifier will produce ozone when it produces negative ions, so some manufacturers will take the sterilization function of ozone as a gimmick, but users should be careful, and the ozone concentration of air purifier should be careful when using it for a long time. It is suggested to use an air purifier with activated carbon filter screen, which can absorb ozone and organic volatiles and reduce the harm of ozone. Ozone machine A few years ago, the legislators' office used ozone machine 1 hour, which caused the assistant to feel chest tightness and have difficulty breathing. Later, the ozone concentration was measured to be 220ppb, which has reached the serious pollution level defined by Taiwan Province Province. It is suggested that more attention should be paid to indoor air quality when using ozone machine. Although ozone can decompose odor, bacteria and other harmful substances, because of many side effects, ozone machine is no longer used in many occasions, and photocatalyst technology is used instead for sterilization. According to the Environmental Information Center, laser printers emit pollutants such as fine suspended particles, ozone and volatile organic compounds during operation, but these pollutants are often ignored. In order to avoid the harm of laser printer, it is suggested that the printer should be placed at least 1 ~ 2 meters away from people, and the exhaust direction of laser printer should be toward the exhaust port, not the air supply port. If possible, it is best to install an air purifier above the printer, or open a window for ventilation according to the outdoor air pollution to discharge harmful substances in the air. People sitting near the laser printer had better wear medical-grade masks, which can block suspended particles to some extent.
