“減霾計劃”是一個旨在修復環境和減低空氣污染的項目。計劃將一項被實證有效、且取得專利的正離子技術,應用于深受空氣污染影響的地區。項目其中一件惹人注目的設計 — “霧霾凈化塔”,以試驗性質放置于北京和天津。從遠處眺望,霧霾凈化塔就像在草坪上聳立的煙囪,但它的功能與排放污染物的煙囪卻恰好相反。這座塔從頂部收集受污染的空氣,塔內的扇葉在運轉期間會截留空氣中的霧霾粒子,從而起到過濾空氣的效果。霧霾凈化塔每小時能凈化30 000 立方米的空氣,雖然功效如此強勁,但由于以風能推動,其能源消耗量其實只與一般家庭電器相若。經凈化后的空氣從塔的下層釋出。在小區層面,人們親身體驗后亦認為,霧霾凈化塔座落的公園,其空氣比該巿其他地區清新、干凈得多。霧霾凈化塔是設計師羅斯加德(Roosegaarde)一項名為“未來景觀”大型計劃的其中一環。他希望興建多座霧霾凈化塔,從而改善城巿層面的空氣質量。除此之外,霧霾凈化塔運作過程中所截留的霧霾粒子,更被加工制成“霧霾戒指”。一枚霧霾戒指代表凈化了1 000 立方米空氣,它不僅見證人們為了保護環境所作出的集體努力,更提醒我們愛惜自然的責任。
The Smog Free Project is an environmental rehabilitation and air pollution reduction strategy that deploys proven and patented positive ionization technology in places where it is needed the most.Experimental towers were erected in Beijing and Tianjin. Although from a distance, the smog free tower looks like a stand-alone chimney that rises up from the lawn, it actually does the opposite of what a chimney does. Instead of emitting polluting air to the atmosphere at the top opening, the tower draws polluted air in from the top, and filter the air through the blades that collect the smog particles. Each tower cleans 30 000 cubic metres of air per hour, and mainly runs on wind energy so its level of electricity consumption is comparable to a household appliance.The treated air is then released from the bottom part of the tower. At the local level, the park users experience cleaner air than other parts of the city. As part of his larger body of works, called “Landscape of the Future”,Roosegaarde hopes that a multitude of towers may make a diあerence in air quality at the municipal level.But that is not all. The smog dust collected by the towers is processed and made into the stone of a ring. Marketed as the “Smog Free Ring”, the piece of jewellery symbolises the smog collected from 1 000 cubic metre of polluted city air. Akin to pitching in to fund an environmental solution, the ring is a testament to the collective eあort to clean up our planet, and an everyday reminder of what everyone can do to help.
