Inventor and designer Daan, Rostgaard known for developing air-purifying towers, continues to be concerned for clean air in Beijing. In the Netherlands, the home of Daan, the problem with pollution is not as prevalent, so the designer decided to make efforts where it is needed, and in Beijing the air is very dirty. But cleaning the tower you need somewhere to place, placing them under the impressive plots of land, so the artist proposed a new method to make the air cleaner and suitable for breathing, determined to make the filters to air more compact, and then place them, for example, on bicycles.
In China, the services of the bikes are very well developed, there are more than thirty major companies providing similar services. Bikepark each of them consists of hundreds of thousands, if not millions of bikes, so why not equip at least a small portion of the bikes, treatment devices operating on the same, and towers.
Tower sends into the air of positive ions that are attached to very small and harmful particles of dust, and then deposited just inside the tower. Technology allows us to collect small dispersed particles, which are very difficult to filter out the other way.
The designer notes that she decided to work with China due to the fact that in this country the government is fully committed to the introduction of the Bicycle, and with officials of the team of Daan are already familiar.
