IIT Kanpur researchers develop tech to convert ACs into air purifier

Details

A team of researchers from the IIT Kanpur, has developed a novel technology to turn ACs into affordable air purifiers.

Details

This technology comes as a simplistic handy tool, which can be easily mounted atop regular ACs and utilised by switching on ‘fan mode’.

Details

With smog and pollution posing concerns across several cities, especially during the winter, this invention is expected to be a boon for many, the institute said.

Details

The minimum cost of such air purifiers in the market is around ₹10,000 which usually comes with a fan and an air filter to clean the air.

Details

On the other hand, this new type of air filters developed at IIT Kanpur has proved to restrict the microbial growth and is capable of capturing PM 2.5, PM 10, dust, pollen, allergens
