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

An urban agriculture greenhouse connected to classroom 3.07 and an office at ESEIAAT absorbs CO₂ from these spaces and, through photosynthesis, transforms it into oxygen. 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. It has been developed by the Construction Research and Innovation Group (GRIC) at UPC.
