The masks, which cover the wearer's nose to protect from haze and dust, were donated by a technical company in Beijing.
The products, named nasal air purifiers and valued at a total of 100,000 yuan ($16,059) were first issued to traffic police in the city's Chang'an and Yuhua districts.
The purifiers can achieve a filtering effect of 99 percent when they have a 100 percent seal.
