Abstract

Water is essential for our life, and there is no life without water on earth. It is important to maintain its cleanliness as it is the basic need for all living organisms on Earth. Water gets polluted due to many reasons such as waste from industry, garbage waste, sewage waste etc. This makes water unfit for drinking and other human activities. All urban water bodies in India are enduring a direct result of contamination and this results in scarcity of clean water. We have to incorporate technology such that cleaning work is done efficiently and effectively. This project helps in reducing pollution of water bodies thereby serves as a helping hand in removing scarcity of clean water. The main aim of our project is to collect trashes from water bodies together with purification of water. The system is made as a floating apparatus, when powered, it starts to float through water body and collect trashes. Along with trash collection a considerable amount of water is purified using filters. To make the boat self-sustainable, two solar panel are used which would charge the battery. When the Micro-controller is powered, it will drive the DC motors; motor for conveyer belt mechanism and motor for purification. Ardupilot, an open-source unmanned vehicle Autopilot software suite is used for autonomous vehicle control. Finally, a Wi-Fi module is used for visualising the status of micro-controller working. Thus, by incorporating this technology water scarcity and water purification can be overcome.
