Outdoor Air Purifier Makes Your Wait for the Bus 40% Less Smoggy

China’s campaign to wipe out air pollution reduced the levels of dangerous particulate matter in the air by 11 percent last year, according to the Ministry of Environment. But the country still has a long way to go before the air its citizens breathe every day can be considered healthy. Only eight out of the 74 cities surveyed met basic national air quality standards.

In the meantime, public awareness is rising. Pollution masks are hot commodities and startups making new models for indoor air purifiers are driving prices down. Now, a new invention currently being tested in Hong Kong claims it can reduce air pollution in an open outdoor space by an average of 40 percent (h/t to Techweb).

Under the prototype of the patent-pending system, air is drawn into the system from the inlet located at bottom. The air current then passes through a bag filter, which is effective in removing fine suspended particles (PM10 and PM2.5), before coming out through the Louvre overhead.

Hong Kong has been testing 2 meter-by-3 meter purification station on one of its busiest streets, queen’s Road East in Causeway Bay, since March. Sino Green tells Tech in Asia one unit costs HKD 600,000 (US$77,400 million). (Update: an earlier version of this story referenced the Techweb article that said the project cost US$10 million to develop. Sino Green has informed us that figure is not accurate.)

Air quality at the station can be monitored remotely. Further planned enhancements include smart controllers to manage operating hours more efficiently, solar panels for energy, and a mist cooling system for summer months.

Techweb says the City Air Purification System will be tested at Beijing’s Tsinghua University next. If all goes as expected, it could expand to other mainland cities in the future.

Italian man’s portable air purifier bedazzles onlookers

Deal with it. That’s the typical mentality most of the Chinese people have every time the air pollution gets worse.

But this Italian young man was apparently not happy about the status quo.

On Wednesday, he was spotted carrying a self-made air purifier, while riding on a bike in Chengdu, Sichuan Province.

According to the man, who called himself Mike, it cost him about 1,500 yuan($245) to build the device, using a home air purifier and attaching an oxygen mask to it.

Moreover, he also installed a storage battery and inverter as power supply.

According to experts, it’s possible to convert room air cleaners into portable air purifiers.

However, even if it’s technically possible to do so, experts say it is quite unlikely to achieve the same effectiveness in air filtering as a good breathing mask can do.

And even in developed countries, where the air quality is much better, an air cleaner needs to exchange the air in a room seven to eight times every hour, in order to maintain desired indoor air quality.

The United States has recently unveiled plans to expand monitoring of the world’s air quality

In our travels to China, we’ve seen first hand how air pollution is bringing down the overall health of the region especially the air quality in India. After all, we’ve been actively building our brand over there, for a reason – to contain the problem and help residents breathe better than ever. Apparently, we’re not alone.

The United States has recently unveiled plans to expand monitoring of the world’s air quality, in efforts to increase awareness of air pollution in foreign countries and prevent unfit air regulations from affecting U.S. citizens abroad, along with bordering countries.

The announcement was made last week by Secretary Of State John Kerry, who said that the US government will partner with the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) to expand our preventative watch on air quality into countries like Vietnam, Mongolia and India – who has some of the worst air quality in the world.

This outreach plan comes after years of research on air pollution in China, who the US had been monitoring for a while. Since 2008, the US Embassy in China has been monitoring levels of PM 2.5 – airborne particulates that hurt human health more than any others. Although the watch was not well-received by Chinese officials, the reinforcement did pressure them into putting more focus onimplementing air quality regulations of their own.

John Kerry and the EPA hope similar results begin to happen across the board, once their new plan is put into place in other countries, around the world.

What are your thoughts? Do you appreciate the United States’ efforts to help the air quality in India and other countries? Or, do you wish our government just worry about the air quality in our own backyard? As purveyors of breathable air across the world, we’re just happy to hear about any initiatives focusing on better air quality, in general.

Meanwhile, reports said a test has been held in a school in Beijing. After using the air purifier, the level of PM 2.5 in the classroom decreased, but with dozens of students in the enclosed room, the dense of CO2 has passed the healthy standards.

Of course, as the huge leaf foliage plants, their biggest feature is the general plant can not match the digest carbon dioxide and produce oxygen function.
7, Spider plants – air can absorb 95% of the carbon monoxide and 85% formaldehyde
Spider plants to carry out photosynthesis in the faint light, absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, and air can absorb toxic and harmful gases. Chlorophytum pot 8-10 square meters room on the equivalent of an air purifier. Usually in the room raised 1 to 2 pots Chlorophytum can release oxygen for 24 hours, while absorbing the air of formaldehyde, styrene, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and other carcinogens.
