Finally, each pre-concentration unit includes a component for heating the cavity.

Simple application of surface coating based on a formulation containing additive to remove air pollutants is disclosed. This improved surface wash, surface coating, windscreen wash, windscreen coating, is applied as a surface coating, wash or treatment to automotive vehicles, during regular periodic intervals, wherein vehicle is washed, and surface coating applied and also applied as window wash as needed. And as such method is very well distributed geographically. This invention avoids complexities involved in operation of existing methods, where heavy, expensive equipment and complex operation is prevalent. The invention is simple enough such that human error is effectively avoided.

The system to be installed on a vehicle to purify air using kinetic energy generated by movement of the vehicle is presented. The system comprises at least one kinetic air purifier structure which is an air conduit having a first particle collection chamber and a second particle separation chamber. Each chamber comprises at least one convex element that provides obstacle to the air flow to separate large particles from the air flow, at least one trapping element, such as cotton fabric, to trap smaller dirt particles, and at least one chamber orifice that allows access to the chambers for cleaning purpose. The system further comprises a micro-porous trapping element to trap micro particles. Due to separated and trapped particles at various chambers, the air is purified. The air purification is achieved by capturing the dirt particles instead of diminishing those.

A system for relocating polluted air includes a tubular chamber with an inlet at one end, an outlet at a end, and auxiliary venturi inlets between the inlet and the outlet. There is at least one fan arranged within the tubular chamber. The fan flows air from outside of the tubular chamber, through the tubular chamber and out of the tubular chamber through the outlet. A compression chamber compresses air before entering the heating chamber. There is at least one heating element within the heating chamber. The heating element(s) heat the air, thereby increasing the velocity of the air through the tubular chamber. The air exits the tubular chamber through the outlet, directed vertically and upward towards upper strata of the atmosphere to redirect the air (and pollutants) into the upper strata of the atmosphere. In some embodiments, filters and scrubbers are provided within the tubular chamber for reducing pollutants.

Provided is a system for a spraying booth, including a spraying booth and at least one filter with at least one VOC detector, the system further including a central database where at least data of the VOC detector are stored, whereby is achieved that the value of the measurements can be accessed and controlled centrally, either by the customer's own technicians or by the supplier's technicians, by a communication unit.

The present invention relates to a System and Method that uses kinetic energy means to purify massive amounts of air in an economic and efficient manner and to separate and collect the contamination present in the atmospheric air without using any other type of energy that would increase the contamination instead of diminishing it. This invention is a System and Method to diminish effectively the atmospheric contamination known as smog by transferring the kinetic energy generated by any moving vehicle, particularly those vehicles in the public transportation such as buses and wagons of subways, trains and taxis, to purifying means.
