Abstract
This paper presents how the addition of different filter mediums to a water purification system will enhance the water quality generated. In this research, four different mediums namely activated carbon, activated alumina, white silica sand, and red mud are used to make different combinations of filters. The experiments were performed on distinct kinds of combinations of filters. The wastewater samples were collected from the Toilet and Bathroom respectively and various water quality parameters were analysed by performing tests on water samples before filtration and after filtration. The adsorption of activated carbon, activated alumina, white silica sand, red mud for water purification significantly improved the various water quality parameters. The most efficient filter model was the combination of all four filter mediums including sand and gravel.Key Words- Filtration, Water Quality Parameters, Activated Carbon, Activated Alumina, White Silica Sand, Red Mud.
