This is for a science (specifically Chemistry) lab we were doing. Our teacher brought out a beaker with a muddy mix of water and dirt, telling us to try and seperate the dirt from water and produce as much pure water as possible. We have access to all the equipment at school, like the bunsen burners, beakers and such. He instructed us to create an original way to filter out the dirt. We are allowed to bring materials or supplies from home, although he suggested not to bring coffee filters as that isn't very original... and I have been brainstorming with no conclusions. Any suggestions or cool ideas?

Make a water still. Separate the pure water from the dirt through distillation, either by evaporation (slow) or by heating it to boiling (fast). Have the pure water vapor condense and drip into a clean unsealed flask.

Seal your flask of muddy water with a stopper with a hole in it. Attach tubing to the flask through the stopper. Arrange the tubing so that it goes to a much higher level (try at least 1 foot), then loosely coil it downward and have the open end inside a clean empty flask that is not sealed (you don't want to build up pressure that might explode the flasks, so make sure the tubing is not kinked and the flask is open to air.) Heat the muddy water over a bunsen burner to boiling. The water vapor that escapes will travel up through your tubing and when cooled by the lower temperature of the air around the coiled tubing, it will condense back into water and drip into your clean flask, giving you fairly pure water.

This video clip is a "Do it Yourself" that shows you how to install a Nature Pure water purifier for your sink in your RV. This video gives you ...

which does a better job at purifying water?
Reverse Osmosis which uses a membrane
or
water filter which uses charcoal?

Improves drinking water quality

I am frequent traveller and love to travel by road to remote places. Some time I face problems in procuring clean drinking water in such areas. Bottled water is either not available or is of some unknown brand that you cannot trust. I therefore need some device which can deliver appx 10 bottles of drinking water a day using electricity or car battery. System should be light weight, small in size and easily portable.

I will recommend that you visit the following sites for assistance:

This one on Amazon is really nice:

It's even listed as "California state approved laboratories certified to test under the strictest EPA, ANSI & NSF standard methods and protocol" giving the filter more credibility.


Good luck!

What if we put Pepsi through the water filter instead of tap water? Would it filter out everything but the pure water? Or what?

you'll filter the metals out of it, but since there are hardly any metals in pepsi, it would still look like pepsi going through. that would be an interesting experiement though.
