Pollution eating plants

Thinking of decorating our hall with indoor plants, I started looking for some small, low maintenance plants. The air quality in our apartment is making me sick. My south Indian cooking is only adding to the bad air quality as I use lot of oil. Since we are in a rented apt, we cant really clean the duct using professional help. Initially we thought of adding filters to vent. My idea was to buy the ac filter mesh from OSH and cut it to the vent size and stick them using some magnetic strips. But we weren't sure if it will be very effective. Then I was wondering if any indoor plants will help reduce the pollutants. When I googled for pollution eating plants, I got these:

Hope this will inspire me to buy some indoor plants sooner :-)
