Making dirty water clean

Aim: To make a filtration plant using household materials.

Water Filtration Plant

What is the filtration?

Filtration is separating solids from liquids by adding a medium through which only the liquid can pass. 

Examples are:

1.  Kettle
2.  Air
3.  Pool
4. Internet

Materials

1.Sand

2.pebbles

3.funnel

4.filter paper

5.cone

6.container

Process - ( use verbs or doing words in each step )

Step 1

Cut the bottle with scissors to make a funnel

Step 2

Put the top half upside down that creates a funnel inside the other half

STEP 3

Fold the filter into quarters so it creates a funnel when opened

STEP 4

Get 1 cup of sand and pour it into the funnel that you have made with the filtered paper

STEP 5

Pour some pebbles on top of the sand filter but make sure it doesn't come out the side and stays in the middle

STEP 6

Pour the dirty into the funnel slowly and it the water is dripping that means that you have done an excellent job

Findings

We failed on our experiment and the water went into the other half really fast which meant that we didn't take our time and rushed it.

Drops per minute: All in one
Watercolor: Brown
Conclusion:

In conclusion, I would like to say that I rushed it and it didn't work out.  All the dirty ran straight through and it and made a brownish colour at the other half of the bottle.  I think that if we take our time we will be able to accomplish it a high standard.  I would like to finish off with this experiment was fun and when I do this again I will take my time.
