| Summary, etc. | Access to safe and clean water is a fundamental human right, yet millions <br/>around the world are deprived of this necessity due to contamination particularly in <br/>regions prone to natural disasters like the Philippines. This thesis addresses the <br/>critical issue of water contamination by investigating the effectivity of ceramic water <br/>filters (CWFs) as a sustainable and affordable solution. Utilizing locally available raw <br/>materials such as Nanguyudan red clay and carbonized sawdust, CWFs were <br/>fabricated and tested for their ability to filter microbial contaminants, specifically <br/>Escherichia coli (E. coli) and coliform bacteria. The study employed a research and <br/>development of CWF through the involvement of experimental research to evaluate <br/>physical properties of the CWF, filtration property, and tested microbiological water <br/>analyses to evaluate their effectiveness in removing bacteria. Results demonstrate that <br/>CWFs composed of 20% carbonized sawdust (with ≤45μm and ≤75μm particle sizes) <br/>and 80% red clay, fired at 950°C, effectively removed E. coli and coliform bacteria, <br/>highlighting their potential as low-cost purification methods. Recommendations <br/>include optimizing compaction during fabrication and increasing filter thickness to <br/>enhance structural integrity and water flow rate. This research contributes to the <br/>advancement of affordable and sustainable water purification, vital for improving <br/>public health and ensuring access to safe drinking water. |
