Solar-Powered Microplastic Filtering Device

The SMFD captures airborne microplastics with solar-powered electrostatic technology for cleaner air

SMFD
INNOVATION

The Solar-Powered Microplastic Filtering Device (SMFD) is an innovative solution addressing airborne microplastic pollution. It uses renewable solar energy and advanced electrostatic technology to capture microplastics as small as 0.01 microns, ensuring clean, breathable air. Designed to be compact, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly, the SMFD is a scalable device aimed at combating one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time. This innovation reduces the gap between traditional air purifiers.

2
Air Intake:

The SMFD draws in polluted air through its front air intake system, designed to maximize airflow while ensuring efficiency.

Electrostatic Electrode System:

The air passes through a series of high performance electrodes that generate an electrostatic charge to attract and capture microplastic particles, even those as small as 0.01 microns.

Solar Power System:

The device is powered by a solar panel on top, making it energy-efficient and sustainable. The panel collects sunlight during the day to provide the necessary power

Battery Storage and Charge Regulator:

Excess solar energy is stored in rechargeable batteries. A charge regulator ensures the batteries function safely and efficiently, providing power during low-light or nighttime conditions

5
High Voltage Converter:

The stored energy powers a high-voltage converter, which delivers the required voltage to the electrostatic electrodes for optimal performance

6
Collection System:

Captured microplastics are stored in a removable collection system, making it easy to dispose of the accumulated waste responsibly
