In this scientific research work, the hypothesis was tested, whether it is possible
to obtain drinking water for human consumption by filtering the freshwater through
natural materials. As part of the research, experiments were carried out in which the
water sample was filtered through sand, charcoal, and moss. After filtration, the water
was boiled at 100 °C for 10 minutes. After boiling, the water samples were tested in the
Scientific Institute of Food Safety, Animal Health and Environment BIOR (Latvia, Riga). By
comparing the obtained test results, it was concluded that these filter materials,
combined with boiling, have great potential to filter drinking water for short-term use.
When thinking about what I could research, I knew i wanted to research something that had a negative impact on the world. I stumbled upon The United Nations 17 sustainable development goals, where I ultimately decided what I would be researching.
