Molekule, A Sleek WiFi Enabled Air Purifier That Rids the Environment of Pollutants on a Molecular Level

Molekule is a new air purifier that approaches the issue of environmental pollution on the molecular level through unique technology developed by Doctor Yogi Goswami, a dedicated father trying to find relief for his severely asthmatic son. Two decades later, his son, Dilip Goswami, used father’s technology and research to develop an accessible, portable, quiet wifi-enabled, energy efficient and sleekly design air filtration system that consistently interacts with its environment. The Molekule is currently available for pre-order and will be shipping in early 2017.

Molekule’s patented technology, Photo Electrochemical Oxidation (PECO), works at the molecular level to eliminate indoor air pollution. Take a deep breath and see what makes Molekule the first of its kind. Developed over two decades by research scientists, PECO is an innovative technology that utilizes free radicals—the same radicals used to kill cancer cells—to oxidize pollutants. By using nanotechnology, PECO is able to destroy pollutants 1000 times smaller than traditional HEPA filters (0.1 nanometers versus 300 nanometers)….Molekule is able to completely replace the air in a 600 square foot room (large living room) twice an hour. Its 360° air intake pulls in pollutants from all sides, projecting clean air evenly across the entire room. …Molekule can be connected to wifi for the device to become smarter over time and respond to the individual needs of your household. The iOS app allows you to control the device remotely and seamlessly manage filter replacements.
