What exactly is "Cabin-air purification system" option?

Getting my option list ready for my GLS, I don't quite know what this means:
Cabin-air purification system

Dual activated charcoal filters team with an ionizer that uses an electrical charge to create the same fresh-air sensation you experience after a summer storm. Airborne impurities and odors are virtually eliminated from the cabin to provide air quality that's more enjoyable and healthier, especially for those with asthma or allergies.
Specifically what I want to know is how does it work, is it easy to service/replace as needed? Is this just a filter I can switch out every few months or is this something the dealer needs to service?

Where is that filter actually located? Is it under the hood or inside the glove box somewhere?

Is it possible to install this option after purchase at the service center?

I don't think so.
