Abstract:  We have created a working model in which we used the Activated Carbon Sheet,  HEPA filter to purify the polluted air. This type of air filter can theoretically remove at least 99.97% of dust, pollen, mold, bacteria, and any airborne particles with a size of 0.3 microns (µm). The diameter specification of 0.3 microns corresponds to the worst case; the most penetrating particle size (MPPS). Particles that are larger or smaller are trapped with even higher efficiency. Using the worst case particle size results in the worst-case efficiency rating (i.e. 99.97% or better for all particle sizes). The air will enter the model then the filter will adsorb the pollutants and hence the pure air will come out through the exhaust fan.
