Removal of particulate matter (PM) has attracted worldwide attention due to the increase of air pollution caused by rapid industrialization and urbanization. The PM is mainly emitted by artificial sources such as activity of industries and combustion of fuels. The PM, also known as particle pollution, is a complex mixture of extremely small particles and liquid droplets that get into the air. Once inhaled, these particles can affect the heart/lungs and cause serious health effects. The PM is classified as first-class carcinogens by the WHO. Thus, many efforts have been focused on the developing noble techniques to effectively remove or filter the PM. We developed specially designed filters with a high performance for removal of PM10 and PM2.5.
