1. Ozone-friendly Inhaler
Ozone may create disruptions for millions of asthma patients. And so, thinking on this line, researchers have come up with a more ozone-friendly version of the hand-held inhalers. This new eco-friendly version is being sold at a higher price - $30 to $60 each - compared to the older generic ones priced from $5 to $25, but priority choice is yours - health or purse.
2. Kyocera’s Ozone-Free Printers
An ‘ozone-free’ printer! The new line of Kyocera’s printers has effectively eliminated generating ozone by applying a positive electrical charge directly to the rollers. This innovative gadget is friendly not only to the environment, but also health, as the harmful ground level ozone can impair lung function.
Kyocera is also designed cartridge-free! Thus, the only items to be disposed of are an empty toner container and residue bottle, which again are made of plastic, and can easily be recycled.
3. Ozone-regulating Antibacterial Sanitizer
Both eco friendly and health friendly, this sanitizer, apart from other eco-friendly qualities, regulates ozone production to a safe level. The sanitizer has an advanced microcomputer, and a light indicator to gauge water flow, thus will help detect ozone level. And, to maximize the ozone concentration in every cubic volume of water, the sanitizer has a unique patented feature to diffuse ozone at the faucet aerator adapter.
4. Balloons and Satellite to Measure atmospheric Greenhouse Gases
The Howard University Center for Atmospheric Science scientists have launched a weather balloon with a satellite called Aura to monitor greenhouse gases like - methane, ozone and water vapor.
With Aura looking down from its polar orbit making measurements of the greenhouse gases, an instruments at the same time makes measurements, which is raised on the tail of a big helium balloon.
5. Non-ozone depleting Fire Extinguisher
The conventional fire-extinguishers use halon as the extinguishing agent - the banned agent in the 1994 Montreal protocol — and is also plays a major role in depleting ozone layer - the great contributor to producing greenhouse gases.
An Airbus-led team of European companies has developed and used a new environmental friendly agent that - unlike the existing ones - does not contribute to depleting ozone layer.
