To overcome the problem of pollutted air there will be a need to extract oxygen from air in 2030. What will be the easiet, cheapest, and the most economical way in 2030?

You have to cool air down so it liquefies, then fractionally distill it to take out all of the different components at different temps as it warms up.
But I don't get how taking oxygen out of the air will make it less polluted! Any way, that's rubbish! The air is much less polluted then it was 100 years ago!

One of few techniques for extraction the oxygen from the air is so called "pressure swing adsorption" by zeolite molecular sieves type 5A . But, this don't solve the problem of pollution

Breathing. Hee Hee!
Seriously, fractional distillation.
Air must first be liquified (temperature around -200 degrees Celsius).
As the temperature is raised and it hits -196 degrees Celsius, nitrogen will boil.
As -183 degrees Celsius, oxygen will boil and hence be extracted.
