Purified water is essential for living a healthy life as such everyone should
have access to it. Drinking water conditions have great impacts on people’s
everyday life, especially in the rural and remote area s where access to safe
drinking water is very crucial. Surface water often is the only source, thus water
contaminations are difficult to avoid due to rigorous and reckless use of surface
water. Unsafe drinking water may result in fatal diseases. Statistics shows that
these diseases resulted in ninety percent of all deaths of children under five
infections.

The history of water filters can be traced to the earliest civilisations with written
records. Water filters have been used throughout history to improve the safety and
aesthetics of water intended to be used for drinking or bathing. In modern times, they
are also widely used in industry and commerce. The history of water filtration is
throughout history. From the Egyptians to the ancient Greeks to the industrialized
communities of today, nearly every major settlement has clustered near a natural
source of water. These days, you have access to advanced filtration systems to
remove potentially dangerous toxins and microorganisms. With that being said, water
filtration is nothing new. In fact, even the oldest known civilizations used some form
The purpose of this research is to emphasis not just the importance of water
filtration but to also recognise the efficiency of creating improvised materials that can
This study is to help those people who are lacking chances of getting appliances

The importance of the improvised water filter was made to establish a simple,

The focus of this research is to study the existing water filtration methods, and use the
knowledge to design a low cost water filtration technique. This water filtration system will
By providing affordable water filters for the rural and remote areas, will greatly improve
people’s quality of living, and reduce the risk of any waterborne diseases therefore
saving lives.
