Designer Daan Roosegaarde installed the Smog Free Tower in Rotterdam, the world's largest vacuum cleaner that helps clean the air. But that's not all - the smog that the cleaner pulls up turns the village into jewelry. The seven-meter-tall structure, which cleans the air in its vicinity and offers some respite from dangerous levels of pollution, is also successful on Kickstarter.
Daan Roosegaarde and his team of experts used smog to build a huge vacuum cleaner patented ion technology. Smog Free Tower produced by mair bubbles without smog thus allowing people to breathe and experience clean air completely free of charge. The seven-meter-high tower cleans 30 thousand cubic meters of smog, and it does not consume any more electricity than a water heater and it operates entirely on "green" and sustainable energy.
So that nothing goes to waste, Roosegaarde Studio creates jewelry from collected smog particles. Jewelry is available at Kickstarter, and rings and cufflinks are filled with carbon pressed into a “diamond”.
The Smog Free Tower will stand only in Rotterdam, as it is intended for some cities where it is smog pollution is the greatest. Together with governments, NGOs and the cleaning technology industry, Daan is already planning to visit Beijing and Mumbai.
