Iran-Made Cellulose Air Filter Cartridges Able to Reduce Fuel Consumption By 30%
Tajeran Palayesh Sanat Khorasan Company participated in the Islamic Azad University’s Asreh Omid Event, which was held in late May in Tehran’s Grand Mosalla.
Ali Farooqi, the managing director of the company, told ANA that his invention leads to a 30 percent decrease in the fuel consumption of cars.
“I am a graduate of the Islamic Azad University with two patents. For a year and a half, I have been working in the growth center of the university,” Farooqi added.
Typically, air filters are made of fibrous materials such as cellulose, cotton, glass, or synthetic fibers. The filtering efficiency is mainly controlled by varying the thickness of the fibers as well as the density of the filter.
Cellulose fibrils could act as a strengthening material, enabling the production of filters with thinner glass fibers, leading to more efficient filters.
“My first invention was a cellulose air filter for a car engine with the ability to wash and absorb micro-molecules, which reduces fuel consumption,” he pointed out.
The product has a manufactured sample and is in the semi-industrial stage. Cellulose filters are in the packaging phase and have not yet entered the market, he noted.
Among other inventions, we can refer to the water cooler bag consisting of sack and cellulose with the ability to purify the incoming air and save water consumption by 30 percent.
Farooqi went on to say that his ultimate goal is to optimize energy consumption in the environment. The cellulose filter production line has been launched and commercialized and the project has entered the packaging phase.
