Algae Air Purifier for Home - VAYU • Fresh Oxygen • Removes Pollutants
Meet VAYU: The Algae Air Purifier for Your Home
Imagine having a living, breathing air purifier in your home – one that works exactly like nature intended. VAYU harnesses the power of microalgae, the same organisms that produce roughly half of Earth's oxygen, to naturally and sustainably transform your indoor air quality.
The Algae Air Purifier That Improves Your Health
VAYU is an algae air purifier that uses living microalgae to clean your indoor air naturally. Unlike traditional purifiers with filters, VAYU continuously produces oxygen and absorbs CO2 — the one job a conventional filter cannot do at all.
How VAYU Works
Inside VAYU, microalgae circulate in water, actively purifying air 24/7. This living system functions like a forest in your room, releasing fresh oxygen while capturing pollutants.

Independently Verified CO₂ Reduction
VAYU's carbon dioxide performance was tested by Bureau Veritas CPS Korea Tech Co., Ltd., a laboratory accredited under the Korea Laboratory Accreditation Scheme (KOLAS) to KS Q ISO/IEC 17025:2017, accreditation number KT232. KOLAS is a signatory to the ILAC Mutual Recognition Arrangement, so the result is internationally recognised. The unit tested was the 3.0 L VAYU; these figures do not apply to the 1 L VAYU DIY.
| Test date | 29 October 2025 |
| Conditions | Sealed chamber, 24.8 °C, 46% relative humidity |
| Method | CO₂ raised chemically, then measured over 20 continuous minutes |
| Starting CO₂ | 8,605 ppm |
| After 20 minutes | 2,648 ppm |
| Verified reduction | 69.2% |
Our own laboratory testing shows the same pattern: starting from 5,000 ppm, CO₂ fell by 84–89%, reaching as low as 540 ppm.
How That Compares to Houseplants
A Philodendron scandens — one of the better air-purifying houseplants — removes about 16 mg of CO₂ per day. VAYU removes around 610 mg per day, which makes one unit roughly as effective as 38 houseplants, in a fraction of the space and with a fraction of the upkeep.
Microalgae photosynthesise far more efficiently than terrestrial plants, absorbing considerably more CO₂ per square metre. Marine microalgae are responsible for roughly half of all the oxygen produced on Earth. VAYU concentrates a dense living culture and adds bubbling and tuned lighting to push that efficiency further.
What VAYU Does — and What It Doesn't
VAYU is a CO₂ and oxygen device. That is the job living algae does well, and it is precisely the job a filter cannot do: a HEPA cartridge traps particles and leaves carbon dioxide untouched. Our chamber testing confirms the division of labour in both directions — VAYU draws CO₂ down steadily, and it is not a substitute for a particle filter in a smoky or high-dust environment.
If particulate matter is your main concern — traffic, wildfire smoke, construction dust — pair VAYU with a HEPA unit, or look at OAK, which combines True HEPA filtration and a living algae bioreactor in one machine and handles both.
About these figures: chamber tests begin at deliberately elevated CO₂ concentrations to make the reduction measurable. In an occupied room at normal indoor levels the percentage reduction is smaller. Test reports available on request.
Frequently Asked Questions
An algae air purifier is a device that uses living algae cultures to clean the air. These algae cultures are usually housed within a photobioreactor. These systems harness the natural process of photosynthesis, where algae absorb pollutants like carbon dioxide (CO2) and release oxygen (O2), for a more sustainable and effective way to purify the environment.
The Vayu air purifier is highly effective against airborne particles, including dust, pollen, pet dander, bacteria, and viruses. HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filters are specifically designed to remove particles of all sizes, thereby increasing their effectiveness in reducing airborne infections.
Yes, maintenance and parts replacements are necessary for algae purifiers for the home. Regular cleaning and timely replacement of filters or consumable parts are recommended to ensure efficient operation.
Our algae air purifier needs refilling when the algae run out of food. This typically happens after 30 days, and you can easily know it's time to replace the algae when it starts to look less vibrant, turns a darker green, or stops removing carbon dioxide and producing oxygen efficiently.
Yes, our eco-friendly air purifier can effectively remove allergens like dust and pollen. Vayu captures airborne particles, dust, pollen, pet dander, and mold spores-all common allergy triggers.
Vayu air purifier reduces CO2 levels by up to 70% in minutes and removes PM2.5, formaldehyde, and TVOC. It is designed to filter out particulate matter and certain gases.
No, our Algae Air purifier is designed to be relatively quiet, with noise levels comparable to a soft hum or white noise.
Yes, you can install this air purifier in a large room, but it is important to choose one with a suitable Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) for the space. If the purifier has a higher CADR, it can clean a larger volume of air.
Yes, our eco-friendly air purifier really works in your house by improving indoor air quality and removing airborne particles as well as pollutants.
Yes, some doctors recommend algae air purifiers for those affected by allergies, asthma, or other respiratory problems. While it is not a cure-all, it helps to reduce airborne allergens and irritants and improves indoor air quality. You should be aware of the limitations of air purifiers and other measures, such as good hygiene and ventilation.
Use an air purifier during times of allergy or asthma attacks, especially when pets are in the house, or whenever you smell a pungent odor or heavy dust. Also useful when living in homes near busy roads or during bushfire seasons when smoke enters.
You can place it in the middle of the room, away from walls and furniture that could obstruct airflow, or consider placing the purifier near pollutant sources such as windows, kitchens, or wherever pets hang out.
