Description

This paper focuses on the fabrication of a pedal-powered system. By rotation of impeller with muscle power using gear mechanism leads to extract pure water from impure water. It consists of a rotary pump, gears, Dc motor and sprayer pump. By revolving the handle the gears get rotated and the dc motor generates electricity which will be stored in a battery and goes to the spray pump. Simultaneously the water will also get lifted while revolving the handle and the water sends to the water purifier. It mostly suits in remote and rural areas. This assembly is compact, easily transportable
