Klairon, a brand of Air Purifier and cleaning products was established in 2015 as a separate venture by
an International high technological enterprise Spiktel Technologies head quartered in Georgia, USA.
Air Pollution-
Pollution is now a common place term that our ears are attuned to. We hear about the various forms
of pollution and read about it through the mass media. Air pollution is one such form that refers to the
contamination of the air, irrespective of indoors or outside.
A physical, biological or chemical alteration to the air in the atmosphere can be termed as pollution. It
occurs when any harmful gases, dust, smoke enters into the atmosphere and makes it difficult for
plants, animals and humans to survive as the air becomes dirty.
In the Yale Environmental Performance Index by the Yale University, India ranked at 174th position out
of 178 countries on air pollution. Only Pakistan, China, Nepal and Bangladesh have worst air quality than
India as per the index.
In 2010, Indias Central Pollution Control Board had presented the report according to which 180 cities
in India had particulate matter six times more than the permissible limit set by the World Health
Organization in the air. Vehicles, biomass burning, fuel adulteration are few of the major causes of air
pollution in India. The problem of air pollution is so big that we cannot afford to overlook it.
Greenpeace research noted that 23 out of 32 National Air Quality Index (NAQI) stations in India had
recorded more than 70% exceedance of the national standards, which puts public health at risk.
Furthermore, as many as 15 cities showed levels of air pollution that greatly exceeded the prescribed
national standards.
Their report on NAQIs in India concluded that the most polluted cities in India often go months without
a single day that meets the standard levels. Delhi, Ahmadabad, Varanasi, Patna, Agra and Kanpur were
among those cities to be listed as having hazardous pollution levels.
According to the WHO, 13 of the 20 most polluted cities are in India and most of Indias mega cities are
also choking on toxic fumes. The WHOs data has further revealed that air pollution is the fifth largest
killer in India with an estimated premature death toll of 620,000 people annually. This is an extremely
dire situation for us all to be in it is clearly stating that Indian cities are facing a public health emergency
and the public and the media are simply clueless on the extent of the problem in these cities.
This is the Greenpeace analysed NASAs satellite data on particulate matter from 2003 to 2015 in India and China :-
The average Indian was exposed to more particulate matter than the average Chinese citizen in 2015
the first time that has happened in the 21st century. The levels in India have increased over the years,
with north India being the most polluted part of the country. The biggest jump was seen in West Bengal,
Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and the National Capital Region.
Chinas actions led to a 17 per cent reduction in PM2.5 from 2010 to 2015, while India saw a 13 per cent
increase over the same period. In comparison, the United States saw a 15 per cent decrease.
Comparing the situation in India and China, Greenpeace East Asia air pollution specialist Lauri Myllyvirta
said: China is an example of how determined policies and tougher enforcement can turn the tide on air
pollution to peoples benefit.
According to the World Health Organization, Delhi is currently ranked as the city with the worst air pollution
in the world. A study of 1,600 cities across 91 countries showed Delhi had the worlds. Highest annual average
concentration of small airborne particles (known as PM2.5) of 153 micrograms per cubic meter. Poisonous
particulates are certainly being added in the air by growing traffic and industries. Among all, growing number
of vehicles is the major cause of air pollution in Delhi.
One way of measuring pollution is by the measure of particulate matter. Particulate matter is basically a
mixture of extremely small particles and liquid droplets like acids, chemicals, gas, water, metals, soil dust
particles, etc., the measurement of which gives an idea of the pollution of a city. It is also known as particle
pollution or PM.
Air quality or ambient (outdoor) air pollution is represented by the annual mean concentration of
Particulate matter PM10 (particles smaller than 10 microns) and PM2.5 (particles smaller than 2.5
Microns, about 25 to 100 times thinner than a human hair).
Vehicles being the main reason behind the Air Pollution in New Delhi:-
Note:-
As per the scientific studies it has been found out that traffic at low speed especially during congestion burn
fuel ineffectually and emit 4 to 8 times more air pollutants. There are more than 40 different types of
dangerous pollutants in the engine exhaust (diesel and gas). 70% of the air pollution is caused by vehicles.
Numerous health problems are associated with air pollution. A study was conducted on non-smokers in India
and Europe. It has been found out that the lungs of a non smoker Indian performs 30% less than a European
because of pollution.
Number of people dying of asthma in India is more than elsewhere in the world
According to the estimates of the National Cancer Control Programmed (NCCP) by 2026 there will
be more than 1.4 million people suffering from cancer. One of the major reasons for this would be
greater exposure to environmental carcinogens.
Effects on adults:-
Poor air quality is a cause of reduced lung capacity, headaches, sore throats, coughs, fatigue,
and early death.
This is the following comparison report of the lung of a person who lives in Delhi and in
Himachal Pradesh:-
According to a report in The Economic Times citing research by environmental economists from Chicago,
Harvard and Yale that finds that well over half of the Indian population may be set to lose three years of their
lives due to the adverse effects of breathing air with highly excessive levels of pollutants. It has been known
for some time that the air that people breathe in Indian cities is among the worst in the world.
The Problem:
The personnel of the Traffic department of Delhi police are most vulnerable as they are most exposed to
the pollution (air, noise) of Delhi, which as quoted by High Court of Delhi as of emergency nature. The
court, referred to particulate matter-PM 2.5 and PM 10-and said as per the statutory norms their levels
A large number of studies in Delhi have examined the effect of air pollution on respiratory functions and
the associated morbidity. The most comprehensive study among them was the one conducted by the
Central Pollution Control Board in 2008, which identified significant associations with all relevant
adverse health outcomes. The findings were compared with a rural control population in West Bengal. It
was found that Delhi had 1.7-times higher prevalence of respiratory symptoms (in the past 3 months)
compared with rural controls; the odds ratio of upper respiratory symptoms in the past months in Delhi
was 1.59 (95% CI 1.32-1.91) and for lower respiratory symptoms (dry cough, wheeze, breathlessness,
chest discomfort) was 1.67 (95% CI 1.32-1.93). Prevalence of current asthma (in the last 12 months) and
physician-diagnosed asthma among the participants of Delhi was significantly higher than in controls.
Lung function was reduced in 40.3% individuals of Delhi compared with 20.1% in the control group.
Delhi showed a statistically significant (P < 0.05) increased prevalence of restrictive (22.5% vs. 11.4% in
control), obstructive (10.7% vs. 6.6%) as well as combined (both obstructive and restrictive) type of lung
functions deficits (7.1% vs. 2.0%). Metaphase and dysplasia of airway epithelial cells were more frequent
in Delhi, and Delhi had the greater prevalence of several cytological changes in sputum. Besides these,
non-respiratory effects were also seen to be more in Delhi than in rural controls. The prevalence of
hypertension was 36% in Delhi against 9.5% in the controls, which was found to be positively correlated
with reparable suspended particulate matter (PM10) level in ambient air. Delhi had significantly higher
levels of chronic headache, eye irritation and skin irritation.
The exposure of the personnel of Delhi Police in open air of Delhi cant be reduced but sensing the
longer and wider prospects the first way out can be a personal individual air purifier can be provided to
each of the personnel on duty in open air, putting a stop to the increasing respiratory ill effects to the
personnel while on duty, while gradually reducing the ill effects on health primarily caused due to the
exposure in open air.
The Opportunity:
The one of the worst air in country and the obligation of duty to serve the nation in the said air can be
even be utilized as an opportunity to set an example to the other counterparts and boosting up the
morale of the personnel of Delhi Police by providing and equipping them up with the controlled air
ambience systems, protectionary eyewear; which in-turn will imbibe the discipline in the citizens and
amplified honor to the police personnel.
Any single elucidation to the mentioned problem cant be a solution but a step towards the solution,
and that step can be equipping the personnel with one of our product which provides the mask and a
purifying device which can be worn at the belt or on the waist; it may reduce the mobility and agility of
the personal as an individual but not at the level which will hamper the physical agility required by the
office personal.
