Pixel

A vascular-plant biofilter at desk scale, made for learning. Sorbent media captures gases as room air passes through, while microbes supported by the plant's root system continuously degrade those compounds — the same biology as Vas, small enough to sit beside a student.

The biology, made visible.

Pixel puts the mechanism behind BIOM's larger systems on a desk: room air is drawn through a living root zone, where sorbent media captures gases and the plant's microbes break them down. Readings stream to the Aerobiome dashboard, so what the unit is doing can be tracked over time rather than taken on faith.

Educators and institutions interested in bringing Pixel into a classroom or program are invited to write to BIOM directly.
