As contaminated pathogenic
air is processed through a patented bio-conversion reactor bed, this green technology, integrated with
Photocatalytic Oxidation (PCO), works in unison to destroy harmful airborne microbes and dismantle volatile organic compounds (VOC) while producing no by - products.
There is no mention of the
photocatalytic panels on the 570 Broome website; the only reference I can find is an interview with the architect, Tahir Demircioglu, whotells New York Spaces that the building «features a state - of - the - art façade that is not only self cleaning but actually purifies the
air through photocatalysis and superhydrophilicity.»
