molekule gets funds to make more allergen-zapping air purifiers - air purifier for mold

It will destroy them.
With the B-series funding, Molekule has received more than $38 million since its inception in 2014.

Molekule's air purifier uses light-induced electro-chemical reactions to break down allergens in bacteria, mold and other air, including some allergens that are too small to capture for traditional air filters.
The filters it uses are coated with catalysts developed by the company and must be replaced every six months.
The $799 system is sold to consumers, and the filter costs $129 a year.
