Gautam Gambhir, former cricketer and BJP MP from East Delhi, Friday inaugurated the first smog tower in Delhi, a prototype air purifier at Lajpat Nagar in Delhi.
About:
Smog towers are structures designed to work as large-scale air purifiers. They are usually fitted with multiple layers of air filters, which clean the air of pollutants as it passes through them.
The filters installed in the tower will use carbon nanofibres as a major component and will be fitted along its peripheries. The tower will focus on reducing particulate matter load.
The smog tower installed at Lajpat Nagar is capable of treating 6,00,000 cubic metres of air per day and can collect more than 75 per cent of particulate matters (PM) 2.5 and 10. After the cleaning, the tower releases clean air.
