In an attempt to find more ways to curb air pollution, Delhi has launched a time-limited feasibility discussion to investigate the implementation of photocatalytic surfaces on roads, pavement, and public areas. The government envisages trial of titanium dioxide (TiO2) based surfaces capable of decomposing toxic substances such as nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and hydrocarbons under sunlight. An MOU with a scientific institution will be signed by the Environment Department not exceeding 30 days after which field tests, appraisals, and monthly progress reports will be provided. The ultimate report should be presented six months upon the signing of MoU.
