Abstract
A nasal air filtration device for filtering air inhaled by a user is disclosed. The nasal air filtration device includes a pair of nostril tubes including a filter at one end and an ionic plate at other end. Each of the nostril tubes includes a cup having a plurality of openings. The nasal air filtration device includes a base tube coupled to the nostril tubes. The base tube includes an exhaust channel. The base tube includes a first housing having a battery and a second housing having a fan. In order to filter the air inhaled by a user, the nostril tubes are placed inside nostrils of the user. When the user inhales, the fan is operated to draw the air into the base tube, and the air is made to pass through the filter and the ionic plate provided at the nostril tubes into the nostrils via the openings. When the user exhales, the air is released into the atmosphere through the exhaust channel via the nostril tubes.
