Experts are creating such innovative stuff in this day and age that the human mind is stunned to see. They created a lamp that cleans the air pollution.

Youngil Kim of Yonsei University in South Korea and other researchers have created a low-cost pollutant-eliminating lampshade to address this problem, and they demonstrated it at an American Chemical Society meeting in San Francisco, California, on August 15.

Titanium dioxide and platinum lampshade coatings can disperse toxic chemical fumes indoors. Even though it contains little platinum, when it comes into contact with common household chemicals, it quickly depletes or transforms into innocuous components.

An crucial factor in this process is the bulb's heat. Early tests revealed that the bulb produced trace amounts of carbon dioxide when it heated over 100 degrees Celsius and transformed tal-dihyde gas, a common household pollutant, into acetic acid. However, homes are now using LED bulbs.

In the next step, the specialists will experiment with LED lamps, but this time, they will employ light rather than heat. Because copper has strong antibacterial properties, steel and copper can also be used in place of expensive platinum.

According to experts, this technology has unquestionably demonstrated that conventional bulbs can effectively remove indoor pollutants.

The lampshades were tested by the team using either incandescent or halogen bulbs. These are frequently found in homes and produce temperatures ranging from 100°C (212°F) to 160°C (320°F), according to Kim. In order to use the coatings with light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which create significantly less heat, the researchers now intend to modify them.
