SOLAR ENERGY AND ENHANCED REVERSE OSMOSIS BASED MOBILE HYBRID WATER PURIFIER

Due to global warming, climate change and pollution water is becoming scarce. A solution for this crisis is desalination or water purification. Here desalination is done using enhanced reverse osmosis. A layer of nano particle is applied over the reverse osmosis membrane that makes the process enhanced. In this project reverse osmosis is followed by Ultra Filtration (UF) and Ultra Violet (UV) filtration. This helps in making the water more clean and drinkable. In rural areas, in spite of the availability of lakes and brackish water, the fresh water is inadequate and there comes the need of water purification. This system comes up with an idea of mobile and hybrid desalination unit that uses renewable energy as a source of power supply. The power is provided from a solar tracker that tracks the solar power during the day and maximum power is received. An IoT enabled controller circuit is used for monitoring the solar power. The whole system enhances desalination as well as uses renewable energy instead of fossil fuel.
