Cleaning water with solar power

PureBox is a conceptual solar-powered water purifying device based on technology developed in Aalto University’s Design Factory. This water purifying device is intended for developing countries.The brief was to create a water purifier that uses UV-light and titanium dioxide for the purification process.

We were given the components that needed to be assembled within the device. The project included: background research, manufacturing costs assessment, sketching, 3D - modelling and 1:1 3D printed prototype.
