BioWall is an air filter consisting of plant racks built into walls and connected to home heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC)
Researchers at Purdue University said. Built-
Provide light and water in the system.
The fan behind the device sucks the air into the biological container and through the growth medium, microorganisms at the root of the plant process volatile organic compounds or VOCs in it.
The factories also remove carbon dioxide from the air.
The cleaned air then returns to the home's HVAC unit for heating or cooling.
"In the past century, there have been some initiatives to build more confined buildings, improve HVAC efficiency and reduce power consumption," said Scott Messi of Purdue University . ".
"Unfortunately, the side effect of this trend is a decline in indoor air quality.
"Biological weapons are the solution to this problem," Messi said . ". (
