Opurium
By fusing the natural power of Spirulina algae with advanced particulate filtration, Opurium doesn’t just trap pollutants; it actively eradicates them, including CO2. Designed to be as visually stunning as it is effective, Opurium transforms air purification into a statement piece.
The Algae Air Purifier
The Problem
Existing air purification devices are visually distasteful and environmentally wasteful. As we move towards more airtight energy efficient living, the build up of co2 indoors is also a growing issue, causing drowsiness and poor mental performance.
Our goal is to design an air purifier that effectively removes both carbon dioxide and airborne pollutants while maintaining an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
Our Mission
Our Vission
We want to improve the
livelihood and health of millions by
enhancing indoor air quality. However,
originally this company was founded
to make an impactful difference
towards climate control. Our domestic
air purifier is the first step in that
vision.
Aesthetic Design
The use of living algae introduces an organic element that connects people with nature, creating a calming and biophilic experience. We’re designing Opurium to be clean, have modern aesthetics, blending seamlessly into contemporary interiors while making a statement about sustainability.
Inovation
As an algae based air purifier, Opurium can tackle multiple pollutants simultaneously. While the technology is still emerging, Opurium stands out by raising awareness about air quality and positioning itself as a leader in the growing market of environmentally conscious air purifiers.
Ease of Use
Opurium is designed to be simple and efficient. We seek to use premium materials to enhance its look. We're exploring smart features for updates and reminders, and researching easy ways to replace the algae solution when needed.
How Opurium Works
The air surrounding the unit is drawn in through its base and passes through a compact HEPA filter.
This stage captures VOCs and PM2.5 particles such as dust, pet hair, lint, and some pollen. Essentially, it acts like a sieve, preventing these larger contaminants from progressing further into the purification process.
After removing airborne particles, the air is directed through the algae solution, ascending to the top of the tank. The algae then actively processes the air, extracting carbon dioxide and VOCs - generating oxygen
At the top of the unit, oxygen is released after removing carbon dioxide, VOCs, and PM2.5 particles. The process promotes improved cognitive function, overall wellness, and better health.
