What is Smog Tower?
It is a structure of concrete that has multiple layers of filters. The size of this structure would be 40 feet in height and 20 feet on each side. In total it requires a compound of around 30×30 metres.
The device will be able to take in air from all 360-degree angles and generate 1,300,000 cubic metres of clean air per hour.
Although its capacity would have the capacity to clean 32 million cubic metres of air per day.
This giant purifier will have 48 fans to keep the flow of clean air going. The manufacturer of this device claims that it could provide clean air to 75,000 people living in the 3 kilometre radius around it.
How does it filter the air?
The smog tower sucks the polluted air, which is purified by the multiple layers before re-circulated into the atmosphere.
To purify the air; the highly effective H14 grade Highly Effective Particulate Arrestance (HEPA) filter would be used.
This filter can clean up to 99.99% Particulate Matter (PM) present in the air with the help of pre-filter and activated carbon.
