The Sharper Image stores have a little device that produces a steady flow of ozone to clean the air in a room. It works great, my grandpa used to smoke cigars in his house and he had one of those things in the house and you could barely tell anyone had ever smoked in there.

Although air purifiers don’t generally absorb gases, such as perfume and cigarette odors, good ones will remove tiny airborne particles of dust, dander, tobacco smoke, soot, mold and pollen. \n\nThe best information I received about purifiers was from a February 2002 rating by Consumer Reports. Now I have a lifetime subscription due to all the dependable information.\nHere is a little more info on air filters:\nWHOLE-HOUSE AIR FILTERS\nFor retrofitting homes with central air, CR advises that homeowners first try replacing the existing filter with a pleated electrostatic one, inexpensive and easy to install yourself. If that doesn’t help, CR recommends the electronic precipitator models, which collect particles on electrically charged plates.\n\nMODEL COST FILTRATION METHOD\nAprilaire 5000 $500 Collector plates\nCarrier AIRA $500 Collector plates \n3M Filtrete Ultra Allergen Reduction 1250 $15 Pleated \nPortable Room Air Cleaners \nA fan draws air through, and particles are trapped in either a HEPA filter or on collector \nplates. These three can filter an area about 500 sq. ft.\n\nMODEL COST FILTRATION METHOD\nFriedrich C-90A $475 Collector plates\nWhirlpool AP45030HO $250 HEPA filter\nBionaire BAP-1300 $220 HEPA filter

For people, take a bath! (and wash that hair)\nFor clothes, wash them.\nFor a house, air it out. \n\nOr if that's not possible, use fragrance or deodorizer or room freshening spray.

Heat air goes up in circles and flies just use air to help during their annoying activity. \n\nIn center of your room, air will invcrease temperature and being pushed by your walls temp. Then, in middle of it, you will have a small imperceptle "hurricane" of hot air. \n\nYou will hardly see it in ope spaces and excelent curiosity gift; \n\nlooks that you have a lot of free time.

This is going to sound ridiculous, but I have seen methanol (wood alcohol) used to wash the windows of light aircraft here in Alaska in winter. Fairbanks is easily as cold as your freezer. Isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) might work as well if the water content were low enough.\n\nVentilation would be a BIG concern though. Don't know how to accomplish ventilating the freezer without defrosting it.\n\nHope this helps\n\nOuzinki

Stop using electricity to operate computers.  Don't buy computers because they are made from plastics which are petroleum based.   The electric motors that run the CD drive and DVD drive give off ozone. \n\n Do not use any product that is transported by motor vehicle.  Because of fossil fuel use and Carbon Dioxide emissions.

Well, I would suggest getting an air freshener. There isn't much you CAN do about it unless you just give your husband a bottle of Beano or something like that. Hmm. This never happened in my house. Why don't you try to vary the menu a little bit, too?

Sure.  Any element can be purified.\n\nNitrogen is fairly easy.  All you have to do is liquify air and let the oxygen and other gases boil off at higher temperatures.  Just reduce the liquid down to around 75 degrees Kelvin.  Water vapor, CO2, and Nitrogen oxides will form solids, which you can decant the liquid from.  Then raise the temperature to about 78 degrees and the nitrogen will boil off (at 77.K, -196C), leaving oxygen which boils at 13 degrees higher.  Collect the gas, nitrogen, that boils off.  If you need to make it even purer, repeat the separation process with the "pure" nitrogen.

Depends on how you set it up.\n\nThe result will range from a more complete oxidation of waste to ozone saturating water and start to leave water phase.\n\nOzone is a toxic gas, - avoid ozone release.\nTreated waste will qualitatively not be more harmful than for a "normal" ozone dosis. The quantities of ketones, aldehydes, acids and carbon dioxides will increase and harmfullness depends on quantity.

use any disinfectant with a high commercial grade. but use a mask and hand gloves when handling these things. if you have kids send them to your moms house or sisters. and leave it to air dry.

REDUCE YOUR IMPACT AT HOME\n\nMost emissions from homes are from the fossil fuels burned to generate electricity and heat. By using energy more efficiently at home, you can reduce your emissions and lower your energy bills by more than 30%.\n\nIn addition, since agriculture is responsible for about a fifth of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions, you can reduce your emissions simply by watching what you eat. \n\nHere’s how:\n\nReplace a regular incandescent light bulb with a compact fluorescent light bulb (cfl)\nCFLs use 60% less energy than a regular bulb. This simple switch will save about 300 pounds of carbon dioxide a year. If every family in the U.S. made the switch, we’d reduce carbon dioxide by more than 90 billion pounds! You can purchase CFLs online from the Energy Federation. \n\nMove your thermostat down 2° in winter and up 2° in summer\nAlmost half of the energy we use in our homes goes to heating and cooling. You could save about 2,000 pounds of carbon dioxide a year with this simple adjustment. The American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy has more tips for saving energy on heating and cooling.\n\nClean or replace filters on your furnace and air conditioner \nCleaning a dirty air filter can save 350 pounds of carbon dioxide a year.\n\nREDUCE YOUR IMPACT WHILE ON THE MOVE\n\nAlmost one third of the carbon dioxide produced in the United States comes from our cars, trucks and airplanes. Here are some simple, practical things you can do to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide you produce while on the move.\n\nReduce the number of miles you drive by walking, biking, carpooling or taking mass transit wherever possible\nAvoiding just 10 miles of driving every week would eliminate about 500 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions a year! Click here to find transit options in your area.\n\nStart a carpool with your coworkers or classmates\nSharing a ride with someone just 2 days a week will reduce your carbon dioxide emissions by 1,590 pounds a year. eRideShare.com runs a free national service connecting commuters and travelers.\n\nKeep your car tuned up\nRegular maintenance helps improve fuel efficiency and reduces emissions. When just 1% of car owners properly maintain their cars, nearly a billion pounds of carbon dioxide are kept out of the atmosphere.\n\nCheck your tires weekly to make sure they’re properly inflated \nProper inflation can improve gas mileage by more than 3%. Since every gallon of gasoline saved keeps 20 pounds of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere, every increase in fuel efficiency makes a difference!\n\nHELP BRING ABOUT CHANGE LOCALLY, NATIONALLY AND INTERNATIONALLY\n\nYour actions to reduce global warming can extend beyond how you personally reduce your own emissions. We all have influence on our schools, workplaces, businesses, and on society through how we make purchases, invest, take action, and vote. Here are some ways you can have a positive effect on global warming.\n\nEncourage your school or business to reduce emissions\nYou can extend your positive influence on global warming well beyond your home by actively encouraging other to take action. Download our toolkits for schools and businesses to take action outside of your home.\n\nJoin the virtual march\nThe Stop Global Warming Virtual March is a non-political effort to bring all Americans concerned about global warming together in one place. Add your voice to the hundreds of thousands of other Americans urging action on this issue.\n\nEncourage the switch to renewable energy\nSuccessfully combating global warming requires a national transition to renewable energy sources such as solar, wind and biomass. These technologies are ready to be deployed more widely but there are regulatory barriers impeding them. Take action to break down those barriers with Vote Solar.\n\nProtect and conserve forest worldwide\nForests play a critial role in global warming: they store carbon. When forests are burned or cut down, their stored carbon is

There is only one type of ozone, O3.  Despite what the meteorologist on the TV tells you, O3 is actually good.  It is a catalyst for breaking up pollution in the air.  People use it as a pollution indicator beause the more O3, the more pollution.  But, O3 is not what is poisonous.

A air purifier is a start.  If its real bad, consider getting rid of carpets, rugs and pets.  Good luck.

I did an AICHE project on this a year ago.  We set up a model using a tower and extracted CO2 from the atmosphere using NaOH.  CO2 + NaOH yields sodium bicarbonate.  It's very expensive to do, however, because the regeneration process of NaOH required a lot of energy.  Also, we ran into problems with air circulation.  Obviously the percentage of CO2 in the atmosphere is very small in comparison to nitrogen and oxygen, so in order to sequester enough CO2 to make a difference in the atmosphere, you have to be moving air at phenomenal velocities, which requires a lot of energy.  Burning fuel to produce this energy is kind of an oxymoron because you'd be adding to the problem of CO2; therefore, we used solar energy in our model.  We then said we'd store the CO2 in empty oil storages.
