PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a simply-structured, low-cost, high-function method for cleaning air allowing the removal of all sizes and kinds of pollutants.SOLUTION: Polluted air is passed through a container into which stand-alone gels not performing blocking with another gel even after an absorbent resin absorbs water to swell are stuffed by closing up the stand-alone gels to form a gel aggregate, and is passed through gaps of the gel aggregate to be exhausted. Because the stand-alone gels coming into light contact with each other, the gel aggregate is bulky, and a lot of communicated gaps are present in the gel aggregate. Solid bodies of the polluted air come into contact with the wet stand-alone gels while the polluted air passes very long paths to be captured in the surfaces, and water-soluble gas or smelling gas is dissolved in water of the surfaces.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】 構造がシンプルで安価、かつ高機能で、あらゆるサイズおよび種類の汚染物質を除去出来る空気浄化方法。【解決手段】 吸水性樹脂が吸水して膨潤後も他のゲルとブロッキングしない独立型ゲルを、密集させてゲル集合体にして詰め込んだ容器内に、汚染空気を通気して、ゲル集合体の空隙を経由さして排気する。独立型ゲルは相互に粗に接するので嵩だかで、ゲル集合体には連通した無数の空隙が存在する。汚染空気は長大な経路を通過中に、固形物は湿潤した独立型ゲルに接触して表面に捉えられ、水溶性の有害ガスや臭い性ガスは表面の水分に溶解する。【選択図】なし
