Abstract: Degradation of air quality, like climate change and global warming, has become an all-encompassing existential hazard to humanity and natural life. Exposure to severely polluted air on a regular basis causes pulmonary disorders and contributes to severe allergies and asthma. According to studies, more than 10 million people die each year as a result of irregularities produced directly or indirectly by air pollution. The work of Lelieveld et al. [1] sheds light on the gravity of the problem. It is estimated that by 2050, the worldwide premature mortality from air pollution will exceed 6.6 million fatalities per year (358000 from ozone, the rest from PM 2.5) [1]. As a result, we decided to focus our study on improving indoor air quality. Despite the fact that there are numerous indoor air purifiers on the market, their cost belies their effectiveness, and the effective ones are far too expensive for working-class people to afford [2]. In order to address this issue, we created an automated Internet of Things (IoT) based air filtration system that uses an automated air purifier which is triggered when air quality falls below WHO criteria. Our initiative intends to improve indoor air quality by utilizing the most cost-effective and efficient modules available.

Viele Studien belegen, dass durch eine hohe Indoor Air Quality die Produktivität gesteigert, Fehlzeiten abgebaut und Herz-Kreislauf-Erkrankungen vermieden werden können. Neben Behandlungs-, OP- und Pflegebereichen eines Klinikums sollten deshalb auch Bereiche mit gut aufbereiteter Raumluft bedacht werden, in denen sich ausschließlich Mitarbeiter aufhalten.
