Smart Filterless Air Pollution Abatement Solutions

Air pollution causes over 8 million premature deaths annually, while CO₂ emissions continue to accelerate climate change. Cutting emissions alone won’t be enough in the short term. Our vision is to create the world’s first Living City Lab to reduce citizens’ exposure to harmful pollutants (PM, ultrafine particles, NOx, and black carbon) while demonstrating innovative carbon capture at an urban scale.
In this project we want to deploy and demonstrate ISCLEANAIR’s APA technology, a nature-inspired, water-based, filterless solution that removes air pollutants and captures CO₂. We will transform a central urban park or a portion of it, into a full-scale testbed, integrating APA systems with green infrastructure to maximize air cleaning, carbon sequestration, and plant health benefits.

Key objectives:
Demonstrate combined impact of nature-based and technological air-cleaning solutions
Validate advanced sensor networks for real-time air quality and CO₂ monitoring
Generate data-driven models for healthier urban spaces
Quantify carbon sequestration benefits of APA technology

By delivering robust evidence of performance and scalability, with this project we want to break the barriers to wider adoption and inspire cities worldwide to accelerate air quality and climate action.
