American elderly develops new air scrubber

Tian Yu (a pseudonym), an elderly Chinese in New York, invented an air scrubber and has obtained a patent from the State Intellectual Property Office of China. The feature of Tian Yu’s invention is that people can use the water and some spices in the family kitchen as a medium to remove the harmful substances in the haze.

The 81-year-old Tian Yu is currently living in an elderly apartment on the beachfront in Los Angeles. He receives social security payments every month and enjoys comfortable life in his later years. Tian Yu's working conditions are simple and there are no decent tools at hand. In order to test his invention, he bought a sealed glass and some plastic hoses in the Asian supermarket, and also used plastic barrels to buy laundry detergent.

"The Chinese characters may have been used for thousands of years. Initially, it means that dust from strong winds makes the air dull." Tian Yu said that today's embarrassment, in addition to reducing visibility, also contains A large number of toxins such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons, and sulfur dioxide. "Relying on these toxins alone cannot solve the problem."

To this end, Tian Yu invented the air scrubber. Its basic working principle is to wash away the dust and toxin in the haze through the medium water in the container before the haze air enters the human body. “People can add salt, baking soda, vinegar, or alcohol to the medium water according to the type of toxin contained in the haze to achieve the purpose of washing or neutralizing toxins.”

Tian Yu's air scrubber is divided into two parts, some of which can be worn on the body. It looks like a gas mask, but it is much easier to use than a military gas mask. It does not make the user feel breathing hard. In addition, Tian Yu's invention costs much less than military gas masks.

The second part of the Tianyu air scrubber is an indoor air purifier. Its operating principle is similar to that of the first part. The power of its washing air comes from a miniature motor. Tian Yu’s production cost for this entire set of invention projects is about RMB 150.
