Accepted Answer

Opurium is a new kind of air purifier that combines a wool based filtration system with living microalgae to help improve indoor air quality and reduce carbon dioxide.

Question 2

What makes Opurium different from a traditional air purifier?

Accepted Answer

Most air purifiers focus on particulates and airborne pollutants. Opurium is designed to go further by also addressing carbon dioxide through the natural process of photosynthesis.

Question 3

How does Opurium reduce carbon dioxide?

Accepted Answer

Opurium uses living microalgae, which naturally absorb carbon dioxide during photosynthesis and release oxygen.

Question 4

Does Opurium filter airborne pollutants as well?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Alongside the microalgae system, Opurium uses a wood-based filter to help capture airborne pollutants and particulates.

Question 5

Why are we focusing on carbon dioxide?

Carbon dioxide can build up quickly in occupied indoor spaces, particularly bedrooms, offices and modern airtight homes. We believe it is an overlooked part of indoor air quality.

Why is design such an important part of Opurium?
