1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Objectives of The Project
1) To analyse the problem that occur in the existing designs of rainwater filters and find
the best solution due to the problems.
2) To design a rainwater filter that uses only potential energy to replace the use of
electricity to make the system work.
One of the ways to save water is to use recycle rainwater. Collecting rainwater
and using it for the uses of washing clothes and toilet flushing is a better idea to save
water from the tap. However, the consumption of electrical energy for a rainwater filter
to operate will increase the electricity bill in a house that has a rainwater filter that is
generated by this type of energy. A rainwater filter that use gravitational potential
energy as it source of energy to operate the system will definitely be the solution to this
problem. A rainwater filter frequently clogged with trashes that enter the system. This
will cause the filter to break down and reduce the effectiveness of the system to collect
rainwater. For this problem to be solved, the design of the rainwater filter must have a
self-cleaning feature so that the system can function well without a lot of rainwater
wasted throughout the filter.
2. DISCUSSION
2.2 Tasks To Be Completed
To complete our project, we need to accomplish the following tasks:
3. CONCLUSION
3.2 Evaluation
We have completed Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 in Week 9. We expect that we will
be able to complete collecting and analysing the primary data by Week 12 and writing
all the sections of the report by Week 13. This will be followed by an editing and
revision of the report prior to the submission of the final report and the delivery of an
oral presentation. The commitment and the cooperation given by members of this group
is very satisfying.
3.3 Recommendations
The data survey must be completed by week 13 so that the analysis and the
evaluation of the data collected can be written earlier in the project report.
