Portable Water Filtration Unit on a Bicycle
Keywords:
Abstract
The project is designed to create a feasible water purification system powered by a conventional bicycle. Treatment for drinking water production involves the removal of contamination from raw water to produce water that is pure enough for human consumption without any short term or long term risk of any adverse health effect. This paper focuses on combined use of different components such as a peristaltic pump (powered by paddling on bicycle), filter (here two candels one of cotton and one of activated carbon). This project will help to sort out problems on need of clean drinkable water in villages facing such water crises and villager have to travel long distance for their basic need of clean drinkable water and on the other hand providing a more feasible solution for transportation of water.
