I'm Sai Jayanth Pathipati , a devoted product design engineer known for my painstaking attention to detail and steadfast dedication to innovation. I'm known for my unwavering work ethic and for raising the bar on every project I take on. Fueled by a sincere concern for inclusivity, I focused my final year's skills on developing assistive technologies for a better future.

This project is what it means to me to think of design as a tool for good. My passion is socially responsible design, where I incorporate environmental factors into every step of the process. I have a distinct visual flair when it comes to bringing concepts to life through my skill in sketching, modeling, and prototyping. I tackle every project with a well-balanced approach of empathy and precision, realizing that every little thing adds up to the grand success.

ELECTROPURE H2O

This product was designed in collaboration with Microheat by using their effective electrolysis water disinfection technology. The main focus of this product is to disinfect any sort of water extracted from any part of fresh water source like lakes, rivers, ponds etc and instantly purify all the water for drinking. This device can has a flow rate of 1L/min and and can also be used for domestic purposes like cooking, filling up water cans and so on.

This effective technology of electrolysis kills all the pathogens present in the water by destroying the organisms cell wall and killing its organs and make it inactive. This mechanism only takes 12V of power to effectively kill all the pathogens so a regular set of 2 A23 batteries can power up the device and hence comes the portability as well.

Attachments

This device has an excellent defined center of gravity, so it can be used as a stand alone product just aiming the outlet to fill up bottles, pans, utensils and can be closed by a cap when not in use t prevent bacterial formation.
Alternatively it can be directly mounted onto bottles as well which has a standard S-400 bottle threads to justify the usability of the product.

Pre-Filter

The product has a pre-filter built in to keep out any small grains of sand/ rocks and only allows the water to penetrate through its 1 micron filter. Additionally the filter also eliminates almost all the common water pathogens upto 70% right in the first stage before the water moves onto the electrolysis chamber.

With the removal of the dirt and pathogens in the early stage it reduces the pressure on the electrodes to purify water as it can not filter out water to 100% using minimum amount of energy and increases the lifespan of the product

Different Options

The color range of the product follows natural themes of nature like water, trees and clouds, the main target demographic being campers we thought going with the natural colors of nature makes the product more aesthetic.

The front portion of the product also has a little logo of a water droplet with an LED indicator which indicates the condition of the pre-filter before using the product. (Green - product ready to use, Yellow - Time to change pre-filter , Red - Can't use the product)

In Context

These are the final prototypes with in context referencing images.
