| Jaslin - My name is Jaslin Ghotra and I am 17 years old attending Medicine Hat High School in grade 11. I have participated at Science Fair Regionals with Azin for 3 years, but this is our first year attending CWSF. We both love the idea of engaging and helping people around us, which is why we are so determined to build a water treatment system that will allow for better health in third-world countries. After school I volunteer at the Medicine Hat Regional Hospital, as well as I am a part of the Royal Canadian Air Cadets, and I also take lessons to play the guitar. At my school I am a part of the Rotary Interact Club. I enjoy playing several different sports, in which I am a part of the badminton team at my school, I am also working towards becoming a lifeguard, and I enjoy figure skating and playing soccer in my free time. | | Azin - My name is Azin Dolatabadi and I am 15 years old attending Medicine Hat High School in grade 10.

A Seed-E Alternative to Water Treatment
| Défi: | Environnement | | Catégorie: | Sénior | | Région: | Southeast Alberta | | Ville: | Medicine Hat , AB, Medicine Hat, AB | | École: | Medicine Hat High School | | Sommaire: | This project investigated the use of Moringa oleifera seeds in water treatment by itself and in combination with filtration. These seeds act as a coagulant as they are composed of positively charged proteins that bind to negatively charged pathogens in water. This system can be utilized in locations where purified water is not accessible, such as third-world countries, as the materials are easily attainable. |
