BUNKERMAN is the solution to India’s Net Zero 2070 target, the National Clean Air Programme (NCAP), and the Delhi Climate Action Plan.
Air pollution has become one of the most critical threats to public health and environmental sustainability in India, particularly in Delhi NCR. The region routinely records PM₂.₅ and PM₁₀ levels exceeding WHO guidelines by 8–10 times, while CO₂ concentrations remain alarmingly high. Conventional solutions such as basic filtration and increased ventilation have proven inadequate, as they neither remove gaseous pollutants nor mitigate carbon emissions.
HVAC systems, though essential for comfort and indoor air management, contribute heavily to CO₂ emissions due to their high energy consumption. The requirement of 4–12 air changes per hour (ACH) results in excessive power use and inefficiency.
BUNKERMAN Technology addresses these challenges holistically by integrating Direct Carbon Capture within HVAC systems and standalone outdoor systems, thereby achieving carbon reduction, air purification, and energy efficiency in a single process. This innovation supports India’s Net Zero 2070 target, the National Clean Air Programme (NCAP), and the Delhi Climate Action Plan.
Concept of BUNKERMAN Technology
The BUNKERMAN system is a modular, multi-layer, chemical filtration platform engineered for both indoor and outdoor applications. Each unit removes particulate matter (PM₂.₅, PM₁₀) and gaseous pollutants (CO₂, SOₓ, NOₓ, CO, NH₃, and TVOC) using a combination of adsorption, absorption, and chemisorption mechanisms.
Once saturated, the filter material is processed into Minerals Rich Organic Manure (MROM) — a soil nutrient that improves fertility and productivity, transforming captured pollution into agricultural wealth.
System Configurations:
- HVAC-Integrated Modules: For offices, industries, hospitals, and control rooms.
- Standalone Indoor Units: For homes, hotels, and conference halls.
- Outdoor “Artificial Trees”: Installed along roads, flyovers, rooftops, and industrial zones.
This tri-model system ensures comprehensive air cleaning, both indoors and outdoors, while maintaining energy efficiency and environmental circularity.
This scalable, field-proven technology stands ready for DPCC’s pilot validation and city-wide deployment, aligning seamlessly with Delhi’s climate resilience vision and India’s Net Zero mission.
Useful Recommendations for the Govt. of Delhi, NCT:
(a) Use BUNKERMAN Technology of Direct Carbon Capture at Negative Cost (DCCNC) in all air-conditioned buildings in Delhi such as administrative buildings, hospitals, data centers, 5-star hotels, etc., in the very first phase.
(b) This will result straightaway in a saving of 40% to 50% in the power consumption of such buildings by eliminating a large number of ACH, due to which this energy is unnecessarily being wasted presently.
(c) The above can be achieved with a 5-year-based long-term plan to be completed before the year 2047.
(d) Simultaneously, issue instructions/guidelines to the common public to voluntarily adopt this technology in their buildings by installing various Standalone Unit models as per their requirements and choices.
(e) A subsidy of 90% may be provided on this technology, as has been done for promoting solar systems under the PM KUSUM Yojna.
(f) The GST rate, which is currently 18%, may be considered by the Govt for waiving off or for reduction as deemed fit, considering the advantage of this technology as a social cause for safety and survival of mankind under the prevailing situations of rising pollution, global warming, and climate change.
(j) Simultaneously, the outdoor units may also be considered for installation along the roadsides, under the flyovers, in parks, and in other open spaces wherever felt feasible.
(k) NDMA may be approached to issue suitable guidelines for the duration of the Button-Up Period and other drills and procedures to be followed under emergency and disaster situations.
(l) Spread awareness and education about this indigenous technology and its advantages to help the Govt mission of becoming a Net Zero Nation before the year 2047 and help the country in mitigation of rising pollution, global warming, and climate change in the world.
Direct Carbon Capture at Negative Cost (DCCNC) offers a verifiable, scalable, and Swadeshi pathway to reduce Delhi’s CO₂ emissions at city scale. By integrating pollutant removal, HVAC optimization, and circular waste-to-resource conversion, it delivers a truly holistic, indigenous solution, delivering climate restoration, circular economy value, and alignment with DPCC, NCAP, and India’s Net Zero 2070 commitments. Through its dual indoor-outdoor approach, BUNKERMAN can make Delhi the first major city in the world to demonstrate measurable, negative-cost air purification and direct carbon capture for a sustainable future. It transforms Delhi’s pollution into opportunity — reducing emissions, saving energy, enriching soil, and restoring ecological balance — all at negative operational cost.
