The purpose of my experiment was to improve the quality and accessibility of water in 3rd world countries by designing and building a solar filter pasteurization system. I compared my filter to other commercial filters using contaminated water samples then analyzed the samples. My pasteurization system was successful eliminating 100% of bacteria from the contaminated water samples. |
