Hello,
My name is Oliver and I’m going to start today by talking about a problem, and it’s a big one. That problem is pollution. Now obviously you can’t tackle and solve the problem of pollution in one go with just a simple product.
So let’s break it down and talk about a couple of the most common pollutants, sulphur dioxides and nitrogen oxides.
Within general air flow the average amount of sulphur dioxide is 1.0 parts/million (ppm) and Nitrous oxide - 0.5 parts/million (ppm). There are others such as Carbon monoxide and nitrogen dioxide, but let’s focus on the aforementioned two for now.
Now the amount of these poullants might not sound like a lot, but it adds up, and fairly substantially. A thought that becomes particularly concerning given the effects of said gasses, which can include, asthma, emphysema, bronchitis and more. As well as the negative environmental effects.
Seems to show that we should be trying to reduce these pollutants as much as possible, so, as well as reducing the output of them, there is a gap, for my product...
Introducing 'TidyAir' the solar powered roof based air filtration device to help remove harmful pollutants from the environment.
And how does it work, well...
The Solar Panels will provide all the energy to heat the metal filaments.
A Honeycomb Structure Made from a smart metal material with a unique crystalline matrix will remove oxides from the sodium, and nitrous oxide as the air flows through. The liquid Urea solution containing micro bacteria will accept the released oxides from the metal wires and remove them from the air, as well as allowing the metal to continue accepting the oxide ions.
The Case – PPS Poly (p-phenylene sulphide) – Resistant to heat, chemicals, mildew, aging, sunlight and abrasion. And finally the Legs, adjustable aluminium legs that will support the tidy air on a multitude of different roof surfaces.
Now... as you can image one tidy air on a roof, in the grand scheme of things isn’t going to make that much of a difference and you are probably right. Well that’s only the start of the plan...
One house, 500 litres, small difference... Well how about, 10 houses ....
... 5000, that’s a bit better.
A small town a few tens of thousands of liters. How about a city?
That’s a noticeable reduction in pollutants. Even if external factors mean the efficiency if only 50% (worst case scenario) that’s still a big positive impact...
But why stop there...

TidyAir (Open Brief)
The task was to create a brief that found and "fixed" a problem within our world. It could be local or global.
The design you see here is rooftop air filtration device used to reduce the pollutant gases in there air known to cause negative effects such as acid rain or respiratory problems.
Followed by my presentation to "sell it"
