Eating air pollution using building's façade technology

Abstract

The research is concerned with pollution in general and air pollution in particular. Through description and analysis, the research tackles the most prominent methods and means used in order to reduce air pollution using modern technologies. It also tackles the extent of the impact of the built environment on the natural environment. Thereby, the research seeks to reduce this effect through the architectural designer’s utilization of technology systems. Thus, the general research problem is formed; showing a lack of knowledge on how to deal with the pollution problems resulting from vehicle exhaust. Further, the research tackles the studies related to the special research problem, which is the lack of knowledge of modern techniques such as (biological filters) used in the buildings, its importance in dealing with air pollution resulting from vehicle exhaust, and its impact on the local environment. The aim of the research is to study and describe architectural buildings that use such technologies and demonstrate their importance in improving local environment. This is made by forming a methodology that includes two parts; the first is represented by air pollution, its sources and cause and the second is represented by studying the technologies, indicating their types and differences and how the architectural designer used it in buildings to reduce air pollution caused by vehicle exhaust. The research reached many conclusions and recommendations
