Biomitech, a Mexican company, is tackling urban air pollution with a revolutionary technology called BioUrban. It is pioneering technology that absorbs carbon from the atmosphere and mitigates global warming. These 4-meter-high carbon sinks are capable of cleaning the air that 2,790 people breathe every day, or 40 tons of CO2 per year.
Here’s what makes BioUrban so innovative:
Power of Microalgae: Inside BioUrban’s structure lies the secret weapon – microalgae reactors. These microscopic organisms act like tiny filters, capturing polluting particles and using them as fuel for photosynthesis. Through this natural process, they convert pollutants into clean oxygen and biomass.
Célzott hatás: BioUrban is designed specifically for urban environments, acting as an add-on solution to amplify the air-purifying effects of existing trees. Unlike traditional trees that may struggle to thrive in densely packed city centers, BioUrban can be strategically placed in areas with high pollution levels, such as parks, schools, hospitals and of course industries. It’s important to remember that BioUrban is not a replacement for forests or natural trees, but rather a tool to significantly improve air quality in places where there’s limited space for trees and a pressing need for immediate climate action.
Maximizing Capture: BioUrban boasts impressive cleaning power. A single unit can remove the CO2 equivalent of what 2,790 people breathe daily, translating to a significant 40 tons of CO2 captured per year. This targeted approach allows for maximized CO2 capture in areas that need it most.
