Designers from the Netherlands have brought their smog free tower to North China's Tianjin city. The seven-meter-tall tower is essentially a large outdoor air purifier, sucking polluted air in through electrostatic adsorption technology and filtering out the smog particles before releasing clean air.

Places in the West like LA have zillions of cars and there isn't awful pollution.
Is there a yellow dust monitoring service that works? I used to use this but it doesn't seem to work now, and they link to a site that doesn't have any yellow dust monitoring.http://www.kma.go.kr/eng/weather/asiandust/timeseries.jsp

I used aqicn all the time but it has nothing about yellow dust levels.
