More Information
Summary:The invention relates to an urban air decontamination system, comprising: a column that can be installed vertically on the ground, an air inlet at the lower level of the column, air suction means, and a microalgae-based photobioreactor, suitable for capturing NOx and CO2, and releasing O2, and which receives the air sucked in from the outside. The system also has an ambient light inlet arranged to allow ambient light to pass into the photobioreactor, and a purified air outlet, located downstream of the photobioreactor and located at the upper level of the column. The invention provides a system for the decontamination of urban air that can be manufactured at low cost and with a small footprint so that it can be installed in multiple locations in a city or town.
