Introduction
A World Health Organization (WHO) report indicated that 4.2 million deaths every year occur due to exposure to ambient (outdoor) air pollution [1]. This number is much higher than the deaths from
-19 pandemic in China that led to a reduction of NO2, O3, and PM2.5 concentrations globally, resulting in ca. 32,000 avoided premature mortalities, including ca. 21,000 in China [6]. Therefore, the control, treatment, and conversion of NOx to greenproducts greatly interested the scientific community

status of many polymers used, expensive large-scale production and the lack of biodegradability (no “green” products possible, thus no certification after ECOCERT/COSMOS). There were also developments of various “somes”, being derived from the liposomes and finding few applications (e.g., niosomes
