Imagine a scenario where the polluting elements from a car’s exhaust get miraculously nullified by the road on which the car is running!

The university claims this unique concrete absorbs nitrogen oxide particles which are emitted by car exhausts. The titanium dioxide-based additive alters this concrete. The latter is able to bind nitrogen oxide with the help up sunlight falling on it and converts them into nitrates (harmless species). These can easily get washed away with the rain shower. Currently, the new concrete will be tested on the roads of Hengelo in parts only as the townsfolk is still skeptical over this concept.
