FAQs


How does Roadvent ™ work?


The Roadvent ™ system, installed discreetly into the roadway, captures pollutants as close as possible to the source. Fumes and particulate matter from vehicles are drawn into Roadvent ™, pumped through pipes underground into the roadside filtration unit which removes the pollutant particles and gases to a level of over 98%.


Where can the RoadVent ™ system be used?


The Roadvent ™ system can be installed on any existing or new roadway and will perform most effectively in high-traffic or slow moving traffic locations, also referred to as ‘pollution hotspots’. This includes but is not limited to: schools drop-off and pick-up points, school commuter routes, airport & hospital short-stay points, traffic light junctions, taxi ranks, bus stops congested roads and junctions, and distribution centres.

It must be installed by approved contractors to ensure the efficacy of the system.

 

When will Roadvent ™ be ready to use?


Right now! Pollution Solution, the environmental technology company behind Roadvent ™, can distribute and install the patented system to over 40 countries.

 

What are the costs of installing a Roadvent™ system?


Associated costs will vary depending on the requirements, environment, location and subject to a site survey

 

How big is the Roadvent™ system?


Roadvent ™ is offered in 10 linear metre modules and as many as required can be installed, meaning large stretches of road can also be cleaned.

 

What is the lifespan of the Roadvent™ system?


Roadvent ™ has been developed to provide a long-term solution (25 years +) to capture and clean high levels of pollutants emitted by all types of vehicles, which are set to be present on our roads for decades to come.
