A wall is formed by adding a predetermined amount of binding agent and water
to
volcanic ash sediment, which is comprised of mineral silicate including at least
silicic acid and aluminum oxide, kneading them, and applying to an arbitrary plane.
Through a natural reaction of positive ions included within mineral silicate and
moisture included within the atmospheric air, thereby exchanging ions, minus ions
are generated on an application plane. The amount of minus ions generated is, in
a unit volume, between three and six times as many as that of the minus ions generally
included in the atmospheric air. The combination of this application plane and
humidity control apparatus is used as a minus ion generation system through adjustment
of amount of moisture included within the atmospheric air so as to control the
ion exchanging rate. In the case where said volcanic ash sediment includes titanium
oxide, it reacts with hydrogen or oxygen generating active oxygen species or oxygen
free radical. Using this function of generating the active oxygen species, the
application plane is utilized as an air filter.
