In this blog post I am writing on the chemistry project to make simple filtration working model science project – diy at home very easily
Creating a simple filtration working model using a funnel, a cup to store purified water, and tissue paper as the filter is a straightforward and educational project. Here’s how to make it:
Materials Needed:
- Funnel
- Cup or beaker (to collect filtered water)
- Tissue paper
- Dirty water (to demonstrate filtration)
- Rubber band (optional, for securing tissue paper)
- Sand and gravel (optional, for enhanced filtration)
Step by Step Video Instructions:
1. Prepare the Funnel:
- Place a piece of tissue paper inside the funnel. The tissue paper will act as the primary filter to remove impurities from the water.
2. Enhance the Filter (Optional):
- For better filtration, you can add layers of sand and gravel on top of the tissue paper inside the funnel.
- Add a thin layer of gravel first. This helps trap larger particles.
- Add a layer of fine sand on top of the gravel. Sand helps filter out smaller particles.
- The tissue paper below these layers will catch any fine debris that passes through the sand and gravel.
3. Secure the Tissue Paper:
- If needed, use a rubber band to secure the tissue paper around the funnel’s spout to keep it in place.
4. Set Up the Collection Cup:
- Place the funnel with the filter setup over the cup or beaker where the filtered water will be collected.
5. Perform the Filtration:
- Pour the dirty water slowly into the funnel.
- Observe as the water passes through the gravel (if used), sand (if used), and tissue paper. The layers will remove various sizes of impurities from the water.
- Collect the filtered water in the cup or beaker.
