The OFFNOx as Real, is a solution that, in addition to photocatalytic titanium dioxide (TiO2), available substances, generically called "promoters" that improve and prolong the activity of the air purifying advantage characteristic properties of these additives.
"These components have no photocatalytic activity itself but absorb the products of the reaction and, because of its self-healing power, avoid the deactivation of it," says the researcher.
For BITUMENOx development, researchers analyzed a multitude of materials in order to ensure adherence to short, medium and long term of the product in the surface layer for different types of traffic.
NOx is highly polluting and contribute to the formation of photochemical smog, acid rain and climate change. Are included within the so-called greenhouse gases. Direct negative impact on human health such as respiratory problems and irritation of eyes, skin and mucosa and changes in vegetation.
OFFNOx CONCEPT ®
OFFNOx ® is a patented formula photocatalyst from most other substances, generically called promoters, which enhance and prolong the activity taking advantage of synergies and properties of these additives themselves. Acts continuously removing NOx due to its self-regenerating power which prevents catalyst deactivation.
OFFNOx ® composition varies depending on the substrate on which it is applied.
OFFNOx ® is a product similar to natural minerals. Non-toxic, non-flammable. Einerte is safe.
APPLICATIONS:
OFFNOx ® additive is designed as outer surfaces. Any external surface can be studied for the addition of OFFNOx ® surface.

Try them in period laboratory developed tests were very satisfactoriasLa "ceramic that purifies the air"
They also tried not affect the service conditions of pavements where it is placed, not to alter the components constituting the bituminous mixtures and, above all, achieve maximum reduction of ambient nitrogen oxides.
OFFNOx ® is a powder additive for use in exterior surfaces capable of removing nitrogen oxides (NOx) pollutants from the air by photocatalytic oxidation.
It is a "ceramic that purifies the air", composed of a substance called OFFNOx.
This substance imitating plant works as semiconductor that converts energy from sunlight or chemical energy photons.
Nitrogen oxides found in the atmosphere (which damage the environment and are harmful to health) are transformed by OFFNOx nitrate which is harmless.
It can be mixed with the materials used for the construction of buildings, such as ceramic or acrylic paint or exterior, turning buildings into "sponges" that help clean the air.
Another advantage of this material is that, as a ceramic that is has no pores, rain naturally clean nitrate ceramics and falls to the ground, being used as plant nutrient environment.
Not yet tried the drug in an open atmosphere, but its effectiveness was demonstrated in the laboratory, with gaseous pollutants in amounts similar to those that would have in a big city.
By exposing the material to sunlight and using spectroscopic techniques to determine the atmospheric composition could see that the amount of nitrogen oxide concentration decreases and drops to levels almost depreciable.
"Also do not form other undesirable gases such as nitrous acid or nitric acid, but that's in an ideal atmosphere and closed", explains Professor Garcia (one of the scientists responsible for the research).
When trials are underway with OFFNOx in Barcelona, but according to the scientist, his invention achieved "clear the air".
Our R & D continues to develop new technologies to facilitate the incorporation of other materials OFFNOx ® support and continuously optimizing NOx removal ratios.
So far, the new product has been evaluated in laboratory with very positive results and the first road tests are being carried out in the Alicante town of Sant Vicent del Raspeig.
In this town the way will be held over the next semanasensayos newspapers to test the absorbency of the product and its durability.
"The laboratory developed tests were very satisfactory, but it is true that environmental conditions are very different to those found in the street," said Julia Real.
According to the researcher, these conditions play a key role in the efficiency of the product and are highly variable even within the same geographic point.
The new material comprises a substance called OFFNOx, a semiconductor that converts energy from sunlight or photons, into chemical energy. Nitrogen oxides which are in the atmosphere, harmful to health, are transformed into nitrate, which is harmless.
The substance can be added to materials for the construction of buildings such as ceramic or acrylic paints and outside, and when exposed to sunlight, and a chemical reaction ensues is transformed nitrogen dioxide.
Naturally the plants would work to transform CO2 and other gases in the atmosphere.
"Our material is a mimic of a plant," he told BBC Prof. Hermenegildo Garcia.
"The idea is to convert the buildings into trees in forests and cities", "Ideally stop emitting greenhouse gases using fuels that do not pollute, but as long as we pollute we must find something to clear, so this technology can help address the damage we do, "adds the scientist.
