Dear Delhi, here is some love from IIT Madras: cheap air purifiers
New Delhi has air quality index of 313, which is very poor
Who knows, today you might be breathing-in carcinogens, tomorrow it could be construction dust. Even if you lived under a rock, you would have definitely heard through echoes about the pollution in New Delhi.
While India’s capital is gasping for some clean air and those who can afford it are buying air purifiers by the loads, researchers at IIT Madras have come out with an affordable and efficient air purifier. In fact this could be the best New Year gift to many cities in India as 2014 World Health Organisation report reveals that 11 out of 20 most polluted cities in the world are in India.
Associate professor at Department of Environmental and Water Resources Engineering at IIT (M) S M Shiva Nagendra and a few other research scholars from the department had been working on the air purifier for the last 3 years.
Shiva Nagendra, who has been studying subject of air pollution for almost 15 years, said that India’s urban and rural population equally suffers from pollution.
