Water Filter Design Challenge

We have spent the last few science classes working on a design challenge, the challenge was to create a filter to filter dirty water.

We used nylon, pipes, cotton, strings, and cups to build our filter.

We chose this design because of how using this design lets the water flow. Water first goes through the pipe then strings, nylon, and cotton in the pipes then come out into the cup we prepared.

our design did filter most of the dirt out but the color was yellow which makes it unappetizing.

One way I can change the filter if I could do it again is to change some nylon into cotton pieces so it could filter out more dirt.

Engineering is important because it helps us improve our lives and makes everything easier, engineering also helps us improve or creativity, knowledge, and calculations.
