Abstract - When the vehicle passes on the highways it

resuspended dust, industrial plumes, construction material, waste burning, domestic heating, and cooking. In addition to these reasons, there are various seasonal sources like, burning of agricultural waste, dust storms or sandstorms and sea-salts [6]. Air pollution causes global warming and results in climate change. Climate change is one of the biggest global challenges faced by humankind and has received considerable global attention from scientists and media. The excessive dependence on fossil fuels (oil, coal, and gas) to fulfil the growing energy needs increases the emission of pollutants into the atmosphere. Approximately 1.1 billion people breathe unhealthy air and are responsible for 7 million deaths every year globally [7,8].

generates a considerable amount of air due to its speed. The air tangentially strikes on the blades of the vertical axis turbine, and it makes a rotation of the rotary engine in just one direction. The generator is connected to the shaft of the vertical axis wind turbine to generate electricity. The electrical output of vertical axis turbine is stored in a battery. This stored energy which can be further used for air filtration. The most vulnerable global challenges faced today are global warming and its effect on climate with deteriorating air quality. Air pollution is increasing inflicting heating, rise in water level, modification in seasonal patterns, downfall pattern, extreme summer and winter temperatures, droughts, and floods, etc. Along with various endemic and epidemic diseases. The condition of air quality in India is poor. As many as 54% of Indians live in cities not meeting NAAQS standard son fine particulate matter and none of the cities meeting WHO standards. The whole world, as well as Asian nation, is disturbed concerning the degradation of air quality that affects each type of life material. So, the aim is to design a system which can control the air pollution by using the energy generated by itself.

1.1 Impulse Savonius Vertical Axis Wind Turbine The highlighting feature of this turbine is its simpler design. A Finish engineer Savonius introduced the Savonius rotor in the 1920s. He has reformed the design of Flattener’s rotor by dividing a cylinder into half, along its central axis and relocating the two semi-cylindrical surfaces sideways. This shape is recognized as “S” when viewed from top. These types of rotors may be of two, three or higher bladed systems and can be used in single-or multi-staged arrangements. The rule is predicated on the distinction of the drag force between the convexo-convex and therefore the depressed components of the rotor blades after they rotate around a vertical shaft. This is chosen because of its simple construction and self-starting capacity at low wind speed [1].

1. INTRODUCTION In a daily life, the demand for the electricity is way over the assembly of power. one among the main issues ever since the natural resources are aiming to end in some unspecified time in the future. The fuel major role in production heating, a greenhouse emission, etc. Currently 68percent of the electrical energy produced by the thermal power plant and remaining 22 percent included hydropower plant, nuclear power plant, gas power plant and as we realized the fossil fuels finished in one day. Wind energy is maximum on the highway due to the speed of the vehicle. The motivation of this project contributes to the global trend toward clean energy [1].

Vertical axis wind turbines offer several advantages over traditional horizontal-axis wind turbines (Horizontal axis wind turbines). They can be packed nearer along in wind farms, permitting additional in a very given house. they're quiet, Omni-directional, and that they manufacture lower forces on the support structure. they are doing not need the maximum amount wind to get power, therefore permitting them to be nearer to the bottom wherever wind speed is lower. By being closer to the ground they are easily maintained and can be installed on chimneys and similar tall structures [2].

Air pollution is a difficult issue to deal with, which spans across multiple sources from vehicular emission,
