About us
Founded in Oxford, England, Health Air Technology Ltd is committed to providing innovative, pure, safe and healthy air cleansing solutions. The core of our pollution-erasing technology is a series of patented and advanced environmentally-friendly high-efficiency catalysts that use quality specific surface area carriers modified to support active oxide materials. The catalyst can convert harmful pollutants into harmless substances (including water) with no risk of secondary release, and completely remove pollutants from air, including NOx, SOx, formaldehyde, VOC, ammonia, odour, ozone, bacteria, viruses, pollen, H2S, CO, benzene and PM2.5. Our technology is adapted to densely populated cities. It can purify all car emissions.

🧠 Air pollution is linked to cognitive decline and dementia, according to a new study. ❇️ The study findings conclude that exposure to air pollutants PM2.5, PM10, and SO2 was associated with a decline in global cognition. ❇️ 'Research indicates that air pollutant exposure can trigger processes that cause cognitive deterioration, such as inflammation (systematic and neuronal), oxidative stress, alterations in the blood–brain barrier, and cerebrovascular dysfunction4. The ever-expanding body of epidemiological research suggests a link between air pollution exposure and different cognitive outcomes with varied and sometimes contradictory results, warranting a comprehensive synthesis of evidence to explore the nature and extent of this association.' #airpollution #airquality #dementia #health #research #publichealth #alzheimers

🚗 India urgently needs to transition to electric mobility, driven by concerns over air pollution, energy security, and climate change. 🚗 The electric vehicle (EV) market in India presents a significant economic opportunity, estimated at $238 billion by 2030. However, the transition faces challenges such as infrastructure development, regulatory support, and consumer adoption. 🤝 There is a need for coordinated efforts between the government, industry, and consumers to realise this potential and move towards a cleaner, more sustainable transportation system. #electricvehicle #EV #India #AirPollution #AirQuality #Transport #Travel #Pollution

⚕️ Nik Scott, a 42-year-old from Manchester, battled severe respiratory issues for over two decades after developing pneumonia at 19. His condition, later diagnosed as bronchiectasis, was worsened by air pollution, forcing him to quit his job and drastically alter his lifestyle. 📢 Now, as a clean air campaigner with Asthma and Lung UK, Nik advocates for stronger air quality laws to protect public health, especially in cities like Manchester with high pollution levels. His story highlights the urgent need for a new Clean Air Act to address the growing public health crisis caused by toxic air. ⬇️ Read more about Nik's story using the link in the comments. #airpollution #airquality #Manchester #AsthmaLungUK #Asthma #publichealth #cleanair #cleanairmatters #climatechange

🌎 World Economic Forum encourages voters to choose action on air pollution 📢 As 2024 sees a surge in global elections, the opportunity to push air pollution to the forefront of political agendas has never been greater. With air quality becoming a critical issue worldwide, candidates and governments are under increasing pressure to implement stronger environmental policies. This momentum could accelerate efforts to improve public health and tackle climate change, as leaders seek to gain favour with environmentally conscious voters. Advocates are encouraged to leverage this election year to demand decisive actions that prioritise clean air initiatives.👏 'Of the many challenges our new governments face, air pollution is one of the most urgent: dirty air is the world’s largest single environmental health risk, with more than 99% of the world's population breathing unsafe, unhealthy air.' #election #voting #climatechange #airpollution #airquality #environment #politics #dirtyair #publichealth #health

🚲 Cargo bike riders rally in London 📢 More than 80 cargo bikes took to the streets in an effort to encourage businesses to replace their vans with a pollution free alternative. 🌎 Clean Cities found that there was a 63% increase in use of cargo bikes between 2022 and 2023. They have called for more funding available from TfL to help businesses replace their vans specifically with cargo bikes rather than a different type of van. #cargobike #city #London #logistics #bike #urbanlife #airpollution #airquality #climatechange #publichealth

Mood swings could be caused by the air we breathe ❇️ A new study found that exposure to dirty air can cause mood swings and even increase your risk of anxiety and depression. ❇️In the study, researchers developed a novel measure, affective sensitivity to air pollution (ASAP), to assess psychological vulnerability to climate change. They focused on fluctuations in individuals' emotions caused by their daily exposure to air pollution. ❇️They analysed 8,541 daily reports of affect, 97% of which (n=8,250) could be linked to daily air pollution data. ✅ The study highlights the importance of considering individual differences in sensitivity to air pollution when studying its effects on well-being. People with higher ASAP scores experience more fluctuations in their affective states in response to changes in air pollution. #airpollution #mentalhealth #climatechange #airquality #depression #anxiety #health #publichealth

🚚 Distribution warehouses to blame for air pollution ❇️ A new study in the US has revealed that nitrogen dioxide (NO2) levels are 20% higher near warehouses, on average, compared to upwind locations. 📡 The researchers studied satellite data to study the air quality around 150,000 warehouses and they have established that the culprit is truck traffic which frequently uses the facilities. ❗ The result is that the 15 million people who live within 1km of the warehouses could experience health effects from the NO2, which has been associated with asthma, cardiovascular disease and premature death. It would be good to see if there are similar results around our major distribution centres in the UK: 🟢 Amazon: Multiple fulfilment centres located in various regions, including Dunfermline, Milton Keynes, and the Midlands. 🟢 Tesco: Distribution centres in Reading, Sittingbourne, and other locations. 🟢 DHL, UPS, and FedEx: Major logistics providers with extensive networks of distribution hubs across the country #airpollution #airquality #distribution #roadnetwork #transport #logistics #freight #climate

🚋 New York subway full of hazardous air💨 New York University researchers found that the average subway platform had four times the particulate pollution (PM2.5) exposure standard deemed safe over a 24-hour period by the Environmental Protection Agency, and nine times the exposure guideline set by the World Health Organization. Those who live further away from their place of work (usually those on lower incomes), will spend longer on the subway per day. Older, deeper and busier stations with poor ventilation had higher concentrations of PM2.5. #subway #newyork #NYC #train #underground #rail #city #airpollution #airquality #publichealth
