Sustainable Solution for the Purification of Particulate Matters

Road side pollution is a major challenge of the cities. The particulate matters are the major contributors of the pollution. The pedestrians, the people in the bus stations and road side houses are the major victims. The air purifiers running on electricity are the common solution for air purification. The electricity produced to clean the air again pollute the air at one end of the world to clean the air at the end. Planting trees is the only solution but when it is not viable an artificial tree is proposed in this project. This artificial tree will produce its own energy from sunlight and purifies the air and stores the excess energy to purify the air whenever enough sunlight is not there. The robotic arms of the tree always keep the solar panels facing the sunlight using smart sensors which maximizes the electricity production. The four stage filtering unit is powered by the solar panel. The PM 2.5 , PM 10 levels are measured and remotely monitored using embedded processors.
