TU Eindhoven Students Build Electric Car That Cleans Air While Driving

Original: TU Eindhoven Students Develop Electric Car that Captures Particulate Matter While Driving

Students at Eindhoven University of Technology have developed an electric car that captures particulate matter from the air while it is being driven. The project aims to tackle air pollution from traffic beyond just tailpipe emissions, since fine particles also come from tyre and brake wear. The student team's feat is drawing attention to how vehicles could actively reduce urban pollution rather than merely emit less of it.

Why now: The novel concept of a car that actively removes pollution from the air is attracting interest in clean transport and air quality discussions.
