Introducing Airgilab: the first ‘living lab’ that regenerates building air using horticultural crops

This clean air is then recirculated back into the classroom, provided conditions are suitable. This is how the Air Quality & Green Infrastructure Living Lab (Airgilab) works—the first living lab that regenerates building air using agricultural crops.
