003 : LakeSaver / Environmental engineering
Cleaner water,
one reaction at a time.
A remotely operated prototype designed to treat chemical pollution in lakes by dispensing carefully prepared neutralizing reagents.
The idea
Build for the water around us.
Passing a contaminated lake on the way to school made the effects of chemical pollution difficult to ignore. LakeSaver began as an attempt to turn that daily observation into a practical experiment in restoring balance to polluted water.
The mobile platform carries prepared reagents and can be operated remotely over the water. By controlling what is dispensed and where, the prototype explores how neutralization reactions could help address pollutants while producing safer byproducts.
From the prototype
Built, tested, presented.
