ISEF Design Rquirment

The prototype must be: 1. Efficient by purifying water automatically with minimal time and effort to produce high quality water suitable for irrigation. 2. Durable to last a long period and produce beneficial elements while removing harmful ones. 3. Environmentally friendly using sustainable and eco-friendly materials with the lowest toxic elements to avoid degrading soil.

1-Solution and design requirements:

Efficient: The prototype must be automated which can accomplish its own work without any
human intervention with minimal time and effort to produce water with a higher purification
rate than that required and poured it using the tap to transfer to the irrigation system , the
outcome water should be purified with a noticeable effect making it desirable to be used in
plant irrigation and we can ensure this by comparing between water qualities of the
produced water and the irrigation water where agricultural water quality has certain
characteristics that differ from industrial or drinking water.

Durability: This project needs to last for a long period to increase the project’s efficiency as
output energy in joules is measured by multiplying electric power in watt by time in seconds,
the resulting water of(MDC)should be useful for the requirements of agricultural field, rich in
beneficial elements and free of all other harmful elements that cause plant death.

Environmentally friendly: The prototype must be constructed using materials that are
sustainable to have the least possible impact on the environment in order to Eco-friendly
materials have a heavily reduced carbon footprint, save energy, conserve energy, use fewer
resources to produce, have great reusability, can be recycled easily, are durable, can help
improve your health, minimize waste, and are generally better for the planet overall. The
output water must have the lowest possible percentage of toxic elements that degrade the
soil and accelerate desertification.

TDS calculation: It is a measurement of all organic and inorganic materials dissolved in a


particular liquid that shows the distribution of various particles which are often reported in
parts per million (ppm). TDS has a variety of purposes, including measuring mineral content
in drinking water or pollution levels in lakes and rivers and has agricultural applications in
irrigation. The resulted desalinated water can be considered successful if it has a TDS
between 600-700ppm and it can be measured using conventional conductivity
meter or TDS meter.

PH scale: The pH scale stands for (potential of hydrogen) or means the concentration of
hydronium(H3O) in the solution, it is a precise way of classifying the acidity, basicity or
neutrality of a solution. As a logarithmic scale, 1 pH unit is ten times stronger, or ten times
weaker, than the one below or above it depends on its position, it ranges from 0
(very acidic) through 7 (neutral) to 14 (very alkaline). We can use the PH of the
produced water through two methods the first one is a pH meter which gives a
numerical value of the pH, the second one is using an indicator, it is a substance
which will change color depending on the pH of the solution it is mixed with , as
litmus paper. The (MDC) is successful when it makes the PH of the saline water near to the
neutral value.
