CarbonDioxide Absorber Plant

Plants are absorbing carbon dioxide (CO2) in air. Even some of the plants was very good, has a great ability to absorb carbon dioxide (CO2). Tamarind tree (Samanea Saman), and Cassia (Cassia sp) is one example of the ability of plants to absorb CO2 is very large to reach thousands of kg / year. As we know, plants do photosynthetic to form substances needed food or energy crops. In photosynthesis, the plants absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) and water which was then in the fox into glucose and oxygen with the help of sunlight. All these processes take place in the chlorophyll. The ability of plants as an absorber of carbon dioxide will vary.

Many factors affect the absorption of carbon dioxide. Among them is determined by the quality of chlorophyll. Quality is determined based on more or less chlorophyll, magnesium, which became the core of chlorophyll. The greater the level of magnesium, the leaves will be dark green. Absorption of carbon dioxide a tree is also determined by the total area of leaves, leaf age and plant growth phase. In addition, trees are flowering and fruiting have a higher photosynthetic capacity to be able as a better absorber of carbon dioxide. Other factors also determine the absorption of carbon dioxide is the temperature, and sunlight, water availability.

CarbonDioxide Absorber Plant, Trembesi/Ki Hujan/Samanea.

Is Endes N. Dahlan, a lecturer in the Faculty of Forestry, Bogor Agricultural University who conducts research on carbon dioxide absorption, various kinds of trees. Research conducted in 2007-2008 shows that the Trembesi (Samanea Saman) proved to absorb the most carbon dioxide. Trembesi can absorb carbon dioxide 28488.39 kg within a year.

Plants are absorbing carbon dioxide based on research conducted by Endes N. Dahlan is published early in 2008. Still have not closed the possibility of other trees that have a carbon dioxide absorption capacity is higher. However, the efforts Endes N. Dahlan was our worthy acungi thumb that makes us able to more accurately select the plants that have extra capacity as an absorber of carbon dioxide in an effort to reduce air pollution and reduce the impact of global warming.
