Abstract

India is a country having scarcity of water. In 2017, 71% of the global population (5.3 billion people) used a safely managed drinking-water service – that is, one located on premises, available when needed, and free from contamination. Globally, at least 2 billion people use a drinking water source contaminated with faeces. Contaminated water can transmit diseases such diarrhoea, cholera, dysentery and typhoid. Thus, clean and safe drinking water provided at an affordable price is not only increasingly recognized, but also a human right and extremely imported. In this research, flood or stagnant rain water was collected and analysed. Parameters like temperature, pH, turbidity, colour, odour, taste, TDS & hardness were tested. To provide safe drinking water in such situations portable filter is prepared using ultrafiltration process to make water safe for drinking.
