NESS ZIONA, Israel , June 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Airovation Technologies, an Israel -based cleantech startup, announced today that it has raised investment from the Yozma Group Korea.
The Yozma Group Korea plans to drive ESG-focused investment strategy through the investment as Airovation Technologies expands its air purification technology into carbon capture and utilization (CCU) technology, a key technology in the carbon-neutral era. The Yozma Group Korea focus on discovering innovative startups that will lead the post-pandemic and the Fourth Industrial Revolution through the strategy.
Airovation Technologies (formerly Salamandra Zone) is an air purification solution startup utilizing the Hebrew University of Jerusalem's superoxide radical technology to eliminate ultrafine dust, microbiological pathogens, and hazardous gases and to convert them into clean air.
Airovation Technologies was matured with a patented technology that stabilizes and controls superoxide radical, the most powerful oxidizer in nature, based on over a decade of research at Hebrew University of Jerusalem . Hebrew University of Jerusalem was established by world renowned scientist Albert Einstein and produced eight Nobel laureates. Unlike the physical method of conventional HEPA filter, Airovation Technologies' air purification applies advanced chemical technology, software, and compatible engineering to efficiently eliminate noxious gasses and airborne viruses.
"Our visit to South Korea from June 17 th to 30 th provides the opportunity to explore cooperating with potential partners," said Gil Tomer , Co-Founder & COO of Airovation Technologies. "We will also participate in a panel discussion at the global startup fair 'NextRise 2021, Seoul ' to share our vision for next generation technology with Korean corporates."
