Recycling Rain Water
Uploaded by: padykstra
Video Description:
On April 30th, the 100 Hour Challenge judges awarded the "Renewable Water Supply" project with the award for "Most Social Value Created" as well as the "Popular Choice" award.
****************************************
As part of the 100 Hour Challenge at the University of Wisconsin, participating students were given $10 vouchers to UW SWAP, a university owned resale store. The objective was do something entrepreneurial with the items bought from SWAP, document the outcome and to share it with others. The proj
ects are critiqued under the following categories: * Most value (money) generated * Most social value generated * Most creative The concept featured in this video is not new, but unlike many traditional rainwater caches, it takes advantage of a water pump which pumps the stored rainwater anywher
e the non-potable water is needed, allowing the reservoir to be located underground. The entire system can theoretically provide a sustainable supply of water to be used for irrigation outside or in the home. The main items used include: $5 115 volt water pump (placed in the reservoir, used to trans
port water to irrigation site) $5 indoor fan (the top is used as a funnel to collect water from the roof gutter) *For HI-RES version, click here:* http://peterandrewdykstra.googlepages.com/renewablewatersource%7E100hourchallenge 4/25 Honors: #12 - Most Viewed (Today) - Howto & DIY - All

| Sorry if this is the sign of a dense person: I don't get the "pump" part--is it electrical? If so, I don't understand how it can mix with the water. |

| it's similar to a basement bilge pump used to remove flooded rainwater - as long as the electric motor on top is contained separate from the water, it works fine - it's made it be exposed to a certain amount of water. |
