Many people find it difficult to clean the finest dust particles on a daily basis. Maintaining a house neatly is one thing and cleaning the fine dust is another hectic task to deal with; especially for the people living near roadside areas where pollution from vehicles is high and thus makes the depositing of dust (in every nook and corner of the house) inevitable or difficult to evade even with the doors/windows in shut condition. As this would impact the health of everyone present in the building, the whole idea is to simplify the way we deal with fine dust. Coming to the design, it’s a completely fresh and novel one with a smart grid concept.

The system has piezo and graphene strings which are aligned in horizontal and vertical fashion to make it a grid look alike. Sideways of the grid is fitted with number of piezo-pyrophototronic waggers, which taps the energy from solar/wind and stores it in a Li-ion rechargeable battery fitted to the grid frame (and has an option of recharging it with the help of an external power source). This stored energy is provided to the piezo-graphene strings in a timely manner to make it vibrate; such that it gets rid of the dust particles which are now struck on the surface of water. Noticeable advantage of this whole system is that it is self-sustainable and easily serviceable without any environment constraint.

Flexible Piezo strings and graphene strings are arranged in parallel. Water from the RO outlet is fed to the top section of the grid, which is arranged to drip from the top periodically; till the water slices gets trapped in all the square boxes of the SmartGrid. After certain period, electric pulses are fed to the piezo strings so that they vibrate (create wave motion) and get rid-off water slices from grid square blocks. Idea of having the grid to vibrate is to allow fresh air to flow in for few seconds.

Graphene strings are arranged in such a way that it gets in contact with the water slice in one square grid, so that it identifies the empty blocks through the temperature drop in o/p and the whole feedback is fed to the microcontroller; accordingly, the empty grid column is identified and allowed to drip again for specific period. This process continues until all small squares of the grid are filled with water slices. Flexible piezo-pyrophototronic wafers are attached to the flexible poles, which could be manually directed as per the direction of heat (sun)/wind, in-order to draw more energy. Thus, the PP-Wafers draws clean energy from solar and wind as applicable.

Day/Night Mode: To control the frequency of water drip could be managed based on day/night as it is required to have more frequency of drip during daytime in-order to block fine dust when compared to night.
