| I am still an actor. I take my roles very seriously. But I also consider myself as a scientist. One question you may be asking is why moringa? and I will tell you. Last summer I was swimming in Lake Ontario. I immediately noticed how murky the water was. So when I got home I looked into methods on water purification. I found the traditional method:(Aluminum Sulfate) and then I found the Moringa seed. If you're looking into doing a project, I would say try to do something that interests you and that you are passionate about so you enjoy the whole science fair experience. |

Let's Do the Moringa
| Challenge: | Environment | | Category: | Junior | | Region: | Peel | | City: | Mississauga , ON | | School: | David Leeder Middle School | | Abstract: | Swimming in lakes is difficult to do these days due to high E.coli or other bacterial counts. Water is murky and smells swampy. In water purification plants, workers use a metal referred to as alum or aluminum sulfate. Alum is a metal and resonates with the "treated" water. In Let's Do the Moringa, Moringa seeds were tested in hopes of finding a new purification agent. |
