What is -2.5 (Minus2point5)?

According to World Health Organization (WHO), 91% of the world’s population lives in places where air quality exceeds WHO guideline limits. Air pollution is the deadliest health hazard causing millions of death, countless morbidity and compromising quality of life.

Diving really deep into the problem, we found the main culprit is the tiny size of PM2.5. Because of which it can enter our bloodstream through alveoli of lungs and irreversibly harm our health and cause deadly diseases like COPD, stroke, cancer etc. Apart from its effect on human health it is the second biggest contributor in global warming and Climate change.

But if we can adhere these particles together such that they become heavier like soil or sand and just fall off, and never enter our lungs. We need no replacement filters to clean our cities and no artificial rain.

Our technology uses a combination of electric energy and wave energy to influence the physical properties of the pollutants like PM 2.5 such that they act like magnet, attracting other particulate pollutants from the ambient atmosphere to get attached to it. As they grow bigger in size (becoming harmless PM 100, PM 200, etc.) they become heavy and fall off safely on the ground like soil or sand. Hence we named the device -2.5 as it clears up the PM2.5 as well as other pollutants from the air in this revolutionary way.
