Filtration of cistern-collected rainwater for the new SUB Park, Junggil; Choi, Moowon; Woo, Sungjin

Abstract

The AMS is in a process of building a new SUB. Various groups are researching on different kinds of stoves, rooftops and filters for use at the new SUB. Our group decided to focus on different types of water filtration systems. We researched on different filtration systems that could be used for the new SUB. Upon evaluating different types of filtration systems, we decided that a UV filtration system would be best suited for the new SUB. Despite a number of disadvantages, advantages override the debate on using a UV filtration system. A general idea and a methodology of the filtration system will be introduced briefly at the beginning of the report. The report will be followed by focused assessment of the triple bottom line in regards to the UV filtration system.
