Reply to comment by Man_of_Prestige in is this air purifier good enough for a 3x4 room? by JOOOQUUU

This is a very important question because it takes a specialty purifier to remove odors and most of the units on the market will not do this.

I suppose, but a carbon canister and in-line fan should do the trick pretty well.

Absolutely. That would definitely do the trick provided the fan is forcing air through the canister (and not around it), the carbon blend is good for VOC adsorption, and a sufficient dwell time is achieved. Many of the grow filters on the market are great for this. There are also specialty purifiers with large carbon canisters as well (on the order of 20-50 pounds), some of which have oxidizers added as well to cover certain pollutants that carbon alone cannot remove. (I am a bit of an air purifier geek.)
