India's own 'smog tower' may help combat air pollution - hepa air purifier

A report released by Greenpeace last year shows that 2 million people die from air pollution every year in India.
When the city is in danger of air pollution, Delhi-based start-

Kurin Systems recently obtained a patent issued by the World Intellectual Property Organization for "the largest and strongest air purifier in the world"
Said founder pavnett Singh Puri.
Considering the air conditioning in the capital, one of these purifiers can provide clean air in three air
Puri told PTI that their placement radius is kilometers, affecting the lives of 75,000 people.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), India is six of the world's top 10 polluting cities, with Delhi at the top. As many as 1.
A report released by Greenpeace last year shows that 2 million people die from air pollution every year in India.
The purifier, known by Kurin as the "city cleaner", is 40 feet high and 20 feet on both sides.
Its manufacturers say it will have the ability to clean 32 million cubic meters of air a day.
The device will be able to get from all 360-
They say 1,300,000 m³ of the clean air is generated from the angle and every hour.
Air will be purified using an efficient H14 class high efficiency particulate trap (HEPA), which cleans up 99.
99 per cent of particles present in the air and pre-
Filter and activated carbon.
To keep the clean air flowing, the mammoth purifier will have 48 fans.
The device will operate on the energy generated by solar panels and will be manufactured using locally sourced materials, according to Puri.
"If there is enough space, the device will run without the need for a grid, because we can run entirely on solar energy.
This will be the cost
Effective and environment
"Very friendly," he said.
"I really feel that clean air is not the solution to the problem only at home.
Mass air cleaning should also be part of the growth and development agenda, as clean air should not be provided only for money to buy-
"Household purifiers," said Puri.
"We are planning to develop the largest and strongest air purifier in the world.
China's smog Tower in Xi'an has been a huge success, and it has managed to clean 10 million cubic meters of air a day.
But our products will be three times the number . "
"The purifier will be different from China's smog tower because it does not rely on ionization technology to clean the air," he added . ".
According to Puri, air ionization does not eliminate contaminants, but works by separating them from oxygen, which may be part of the problem itself.
Kurin City Cleaner will clean up 99 with nine stages of physical filters.
Pollutants in the air accounted for 99.
"We have been promoting the concept of the city --

"We want to show how effective it would be to use this technology before things get out of control.
"We can still save this city, this country, and most importantly save countless lives," Mehta said . ". "We use pre-
Filter to remove visible (PM 10 and above) particles and then filter PM 2 on the H14 grade HEPA filter.
Up to 99 of 5 grains (small particles.
"99, and finally the activated carbon filter, which is used to remove all set-offs, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and odors," said Puri . ".
To maximize the net air delivery rate of the entire tower, there are nine filtration stages followed by centrifugal force.
Puri noted that the tower could be completed within four months of being approved by the authorities.
The expected price range of the purifier is between 1.
He said 75 grams to two grams per tower.
"Our equipment is not only cheaper than the existing equipment used elsewhere in the world, it costs about $300,000, but it is much cleaner than the ionization Tower," said Puri . ".
He pointed out that most international chain stores sell equipment outside the assembly line, which makes the equipment in every country the same.
"As the most polluted city in the world, India, especially Delhi, is unique.
"We want to create a device for the Indian market that can really remove all pollutants," Puri noted . ".
He said the company is ready for a scale model that can be tested in any environment with a PM level of up to 2000.
Kurin tested the technology of the purifier center in one of their-home devices.
The device was amplified to measure its effectiveness before the patent was filed.
We created a six. foot-
Using a high model of core technology, it was found to work well.
Puri added: "It is more than certain that we provide samples to hospitals, veterinarians, commercial spaces and people living around Anand Vihar and Ghaziabad in order to be at the most
