4. INTRODUCTION
 Simple process of recycling air pollutants into inks or
paint pigments.
 This is the black ink which is made completely out of
the air pollution captured from auto emission,
chimneys and from other sources.
 This AIR-INK was first introduced by Graviky
labs situated in Bangalore, founded by
Anirudh Sharma.
 This AIR-INK was first used in August 2016 in
association with Tiger Beer to create an street arts in
Hong Kong.

5. HISTORY OF AIR-INK
 Graviky Lab a spin-off group of MIT media lab first
convinced the idea of AIR-INK.
 In 2k16, AIR-INK product were commercially available
to graphic artist.
 Exhaust of motor generator.

Simple process to harvest the pollution into ink and
paints.

7. About kaalink
 Kaalink is a contraption retrofitted to
exhaust source to capture the pollutants
from smog.
 This Soot(pollutants) contains heavy
metals and carcinogens which is
removed under various process to get
the purified carbon based pigments.
 Finally this purified carbon based
pigments mixed with different chemical
and oils to make different kinds of
pigments and inks.
 Does not affect the performance of
engine.

8. Carbon nano tubes
 This tube is made of carbon formed from graphite.
 It is flexible and 300 times stronger then steel and
stiffest.
 It has more conductivity the copper and high thermal
conductivity.

9. How Does It Works
 This KAALINK have a thermo sensor which senses the
heat when this device fitted to the exhaust pipe and when
engine activated, the gas starts flowing through the tale
pipe and the device turns on automatically.
 All PM2.5 is then captured into the device KAALINK within
its walls and rest if gases(purified air) are allowed to
passes into atmosphere without affecting the performance
of engine.
 When the collection apparatus is full, light on device turns
red to blue automatically.
 This is a mechatronic system consist of
electrostatic filtration, depth filtration
to filter the soot.
 Now this purified soot passes through
chemical process or mixed with it to
produce ink pigments or paints.

10. Air-ink ranges
0.7MM ROUND TIP
​Fine point marker for everyday creativity. Approx. 40 minutes of diesel car
pollution
2MM ROUND TIP
Perfect for shading and small detail. Approx. 50 minutes of diesel car
pollution.
15MM CHISEL TIP
​Thick lines, smooth strokes, great feel. Approx. 130 minutes of diesel car
pollution.
50MM WIDE TIP
​Made extra wide for murals and large-scale pieces. Approx. 130 minutes of
diesel car pollution.

11. Advantages
 The best and revolutionary way to control the world
pollution.
 Made from deliberate of burning fossil fuel.
 Can be used for outdoor paints.
 Designing on clothes.
 Streets arts is a better consumption.
 Graffiti on roads.

12. Disadvantages
 Not easily available in the market.
 Purchasing process is lengthy.

13. Features
 According to tests at Graviky Labs, the Kaalink device can
capture up to 93 percent of the emitted pollution from
standard internal combustion engines.
 Graviky lab estimates that 30 ml of the ink captures 45
minutes of tailpipe pollution.
 Each unit typically collects carbon for about two weeks of
city driving before it needs to be swapped out.
 High quality printing ink for consumer as well as industrial
market.
 It also capture PM2.5 and other toxic chemicals before it
enters into our lungs.

14. Conclusion
 The is the best and effective ways to control the
pollution and to protect our health and our planet too.
 It harvest the pollutants into inks.
 Eco friendly and safe.

15. Future scope
 Arrest the urban PM air pollution in a way that it doesn’t
reach our lungs or waste streams.
 Chances of asthma among children
can be reduces.
 Air pollution can be control.
 The pollutants which could have
been in the lungs of millions of
people, or mixed into our water,
land streams are now beautifully
resting as art.

the less pollution in ours
lungs
