Abstract
Drinking water is the most rapidly depleting resource on the earth. But it is also the one, which is taken for granted by most of the population. So to make sure that the future generations can enjoy the life on earth instead of waging war over water, new methods should be developed to solve the water crisis. In this project, a method of using renewable energy sources and environmental friendly processes to build a water purification unit is employed. A model of the system is built and is tested for various parameters to access its performance. On the basis of the obtained results, a design for a self-operating solar water purification product is proposed, i. e. with a few comprehensive studies, this system can be marketed. The advantage of this system is that it uses only gravitational force and solar energy to operate. And only periodic supervision and maintenance is required.
