Abstract

The simplest method of water purification is achieved through a physical filtration process using natural materials such as zeolite, coral rock, palm fibers and other natural substances as filters. The filtration process allows for the separation of solid particles from water by passing water through a medium containing filters, resulting in clear filtrate. To obtain optimal water purification results, it is necessary to design a suitable and efficient water purification device so that the produced water remains clear and meets the quality requirements for clean water according to the 2010 Ministry of Health regulations. However, some communities are not familiar with the design of filtration devices and suitable filter components. Therefore, this experiment was conducted to design a water purification device using easily accessible and cost-effective filtering materials. Additionally, this experiment was carried out with various filtering materials to obtain data on the physical conditions of water in the Jawi River canal.
