Our Innovation

How does it work?

Our water filter provides a sustainable and portable solution for clean drinking water, designed for underserved communities. Using a multi-layer system, it mainly consists of banana fibers for initial filtration, activated charcoal and carbon for chemical absorption, sand to remove impurities, and moringa seeds to eliminate pathogens, filtering bacteria as small as 0.2 micrometers. Its durable stainless steel casing ensures longevity and portability, making it ideal for households or emergency use. Developed with input from Dr. Syed (Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry) and Dr. Walker (Ph.D. in Environmental Science), this innovation is simple to use and highly effective for water purification. Everything inside the filter is degradable and natural giving us a competitive advantage against other businesses.

Our Prototype

Our prototype consists of all the necessary layers of the filter and is put into a plastic container with small holes at the bottom that release clean water. It has been overseen by Dr. Syed and Dr. Walker, confirming functionality and safety.
