A random google link says that you would need hundreds of plants per person to get sufficient oxygen production [1].

And during night, the plants would just produce CO2, which would presumably get accumulated, making the whole situation worse.

Plants have have been shown to capture other contaminants in the air as well, I haven't seen any capture capacity over any time scale. I wonder if anyone has done the metrics.
