Fifteen advanced fog sprayers designed to significantly reduce dangerous airborne pollutants are involved in this cutting-edge technology.

These state-of-the-art Anti-Smog Guns work by releasing a fine mist of water into the air. Harmful particles such as PM2.5 and PM10 fall to the ground as the mist binds with them, thereby improving air quality in densely populated urban areas.

These guns are strategically placed in various areas throughout Lahore and are linked with Punjab’s live air quality monitoring system. The devices will automatically activate whenever pollution levels rise, ensuring a timely and efficient response to smog threats. The devices use real-time data from satellites, drones, and artificial intelligence.
