Project Name : To reduce the percentage of Arsenic in water
Theme Name : Mathematics Modelling
To reduce the percentage of Arsenic in water by mini Arsenic Kit and “Aruba” method.
Scientific Principle: Mini Arsenic Kit based on Oxidation process of Arsenic.
Aruba is mixed into Arsenic contaminated drinking water where it reacts with it and immobilizes arsenic by absorption & coprecipitation.
Utlity and further scope of the exhibit: As we know that drinking water problem is a major threat to our human society due to which several diseases are being caused. Arsenic is a heavy metalloid element which is slow poison and is dissolved in water through dyes, paints factories etc. Our team made an innovative mini arsenic treatment plant for the relief of the villagers. With the help of this arsenic treatment plant the level of arsenic gets decreased .THIS MINIARSENIC TREATMENT kit is our teams new creation in which the principle is of oxidation and coagulation in which the potash alum helps in coagulation and in sand silicon dioxide is present which help in oxidation also it is very chaep method for removal of arsenic it justs costs rupees 10 and If it is further applied by the government it can be used on a large scale.
We also made an alternate arsenic treatment plant by Aruba method. This Aruba is prepared by mixing coal ash particles with ferric hydroxide with the help of this method we can remove the presence of arsenic dissolved in water.
