Idea Proposal 121

This document proposes a compatible water purification system. It uses a simple 3-component process of microfiltration, carbon filtering, and micro heat exchange to purify water and kill microorganisms. The microfiltration membrane traps bacteria, parasites, and microplastics down to 0.2 microns. The carbon filter absorbs contaminants like chlorine and organic chemicals. Finally, the micro heat exchanger heats the water to kill any remaining microbes. This portable design aims to improve upon existing products like the LifeStraw that cannot store purified water for later use.

CHE 121 PRODUCT PROPOSAL

ENVIRONMENT INDUSTRY
environment industry is an industry that produce environment goods or service includes
measure,prevent,limit,correction of environment damage

the product proposal is a compatible purifier water system


-The normal water filtration system was costly and needed a plant to run.
water filter these days is not compatible and big,that's why they only use at home and
workplace

THIS PROPOSAL PRODUCT IS BUILT FOR COMPATIBLE USAGE AND SMALL SIZE

THE PROCESS FLOW OF WATER FILTRATION IS SIMPLE THAT NEED 3 COMPONENT


1.MICROFILTRATION MEMBRANE
2.CARBON FILTER
3 MICRO HEAT EXCHANGER

THESE COMPONENT CARRY OUT DIFFERENT FACTORS TO ENSURE THE WATER IS


SAFE FROM HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE

1 MICROFILTRATION MEMBRANE IS A FILTER SYSTEM THAT LIKELY SIMILAR TO


KIDNEY.THE MICROFILTRATION IS MADE UP FROM MICROSCOPIC PORES SIZE 0.2
MICRON TO TRAP BACTERIA,PARASITES AND MICROPLASTIC.IT IS ALSO TRAP
DIRT TO ENSURE CLEAN WATER PASS THROUGH.
MICROFILTRATION MEMBRANE CAN LAST UP TO 1000 GALLONS (4000 LITERS)

2.CARBON FILTER IS A CARBON BASED FILTER THAT ABSORB CONTAMINANTS TO


REDUCE CHLORINE,ORGANIC CHEMICAL,BAD ODOR AND TASTE
CARBON FILTER CAN LAST UP TO 25 GALLONS (100 LITERS )

3.MICRO HEAT EXCHANGER IS THE COMPONENT THAT HEAT UP THE WATER TO


KILL ANY MICROORGANISM IN THE WATER.IT IS TO PREVENT ANY HARMFUL
MICROBES THAT CAN CAUSE DISEASE.MICRO HEAT EXCHANGER IS SMALL AND
LIGHTER SO IT IS A PERFECT USE TO THE PRODUCT.
PRODUCT PROPOSAL

PRODUCT IDEA WAS FROM EXISTING PRODUCT IDEA WHICH IS LIFE STRAW
PRODUCT

LifeStraw is a brand of water filtration and purification devices. The original LifeStraw was
designed as a portable water filter "straw". It filters a maximum of 4000 liters of water, enough for
one person for three years. It removes almost all waterborne bacteria, microplastics and
[1]
parasites. A bottle was later developed which incorporated a LifeStraw cartridge into a
[2]
650-milliliter (22 US fl oz) BPA-free plastic sports water bottle. In addition to these portable
filters, the manufacturer also produces high-volume purifiers powered by gravity that also remove
[3]
viruses. These are designed for family and community use.
The water filters are designed by the Swiss-based Vestergaard Frandsen. While originally
developed for people living in developing nations and for distribution in humanitarian crisis, the
filters have gained popularity as consumer products. The device is now used as a tool for
survivalists and outdoor enthusiasts in addition to being used to help combat clean water scarcity
worldwide. The filters can provide clean water without the need for batteries or chemical
treatment. They are made using hollow fiber membrane technology; some of them also
incorporate an activated carbon component.
HOWEVER ,THIS PRODUCT HAVE A DISADVANTAGE WHICH IS THERE CANT STORE
CLEAN WATER FOR FURTHER USAGE. THEREFORE WE TAKE THE CHANCE TO
INNOVATE THE EXISTING PRODUCT TO A NEW PRODUCT THAT CAN CLOSE THE
DISADVANTGE GAP.WE MAKE A FILTRATION BOX INSTEAD OF STRAW THAT CAN
PRODUCE MUCH MORE CLEAN WATER FOR HEAVY USE .

THE FLOW OF THIS PRODUCT IS


RIVER WATER/LAKE WATER —----- PUMP—----MICROFILTRATION —------CARBON
FILTER—----HEAT EXCHANGER —----------CLEAN WATER OUTLET
