Chlorella Oxygen Pavilion
purifies the air using good old-fashioned algae. The entire system is run by solar panels.
For 92 percent of the people on this planet, local air pollution exceeds healthy limits. Adam Miklosi hopes to change that by bringing fresh air to city dwellers with his remarkable Chlorella Oxygen Pavilion, which purifies the air using good old-fashioned algae. Each portable pavilion contains an algae fountain at the center and can be moved around within a city to give people access to clean, healthy air - sort of like a mobile oxygen bar, but much, much cooler. The design of the structure does more than simply purify the air. It also uses semi-transparent Teflon membranes to reduce noise and visual stimulation – creating a quiet, isolated escape for tired visitors who want to relax and recharge. The algae fountain in the center consists of a series of photobioreactors filled with five cubic meters of water and algae.
