We started Project "PAANI“ (Hindi for water) and researched deeply on the subject. We found that the current water-filtering technologies create 60-70% water wastage and also carry a lot of additional costs like electricity, non-recyclable plastic bodies and filters, branding and marketing costs. They also eliminate the most needed minerals like Magnesium, Sodium and Potassium and don’t fulfil natural hydration needs of body. Causing illnesses.
Simpal, The founder of Project PAANI, in association with INSIST has found an alternative that does not waste water; saves on electricity cost; is scalable, affordable and zero-pollution driven. –

Objectives:
Today water is a scarce & precious commodity and it is emerging as a demand everywhere. Most of water is wasted when people don’t turn off the faucet out of laziness or negligence. People leave water running, while brushing one’s teeth or forgetting to shut the tap after the bathtub has been filled. To avoid wastage, sensors are fitted and the automatic operation of the sensors controls the wastage. This paper focuses on studies of the amount of water spent daily and reduces the consumption of water In order to save considerable amount of money as well as energy resources.
Methods/Analysis:
Drip calculators is a device installed, and it measures that a faucet releasing three drops a minute wastes appx 1 ml of water and more than 1.4 litres per day or approximately 511 litres per year. The adoption of automatic faucets, sensor urinals and low flow aerators make considerable amount of water savings as well as a cost -effective solution for water crisis. Equipped with motion sensors, automatic faucets only turn on and release water if a person is detected. Once the sensor determines that no one is in front, the valve closes automatically. In order to find the cost effectiveness, a Theatre in Trichy named as La cinemas have been studied.

CERAMIC WATER FILTER FOR DRINKING WATER TREATMENTIRJET Journal
This document summarizes research on developing a ceramic water filter that can remove both microbial and certain chemical contaminants from drinking water at the household level. Ceramic water filters are made from clay and organic materials like sawdust or rice husks. Filters with different ratios of clay to sawdust were produced and tested. Testing showed that filters with more clay (and less sawdust) had higher porosity and flow rates, allowing more water to pass through. Filters were able to significantly reduce total coliform and fecal coliform bacteria in contaminated water samples. The results suggest that ceramic water filters have the potential to treat both microbial and some chemical contamination in drinking water.

Introduction
Access to clean drinking water in underdeveloped areas of the world is a growing problem due to global increases in both population and pollution. Current methods of water treatment are impractical to apply in many parts of the world, as these technologies are expensive, require large facilities staffed by a litany of professionals, and the production/disposal of treatment chemicals that often have negative environmental impacts. The need to develop a method of water treatment that is less expensive, operates without the use of chemical treatments, and has relatively low electrical power usage is of profound importance. One of the most viable and promising optionsoptions is to make use both cavitation and ultraviolet light (UV). The purpose of this project is to develop a system for researching the combined effects of these two forms of water purification.
Cavitation occurs when the static pressure of water drops below vapor pressure. Small microbubbles form and slowly collapse in an energetic manner. As cavitation bubbles collapse, temperatures within the bubble can reach upwards of 5000 degrees Kelvin. Due to pyrolytic decomposition that takes place within the collapsing bubbles, the OH radicals and shock waves arecan be generated at the gas–liquid interface (A. Agarwal et al, 2011). These radicals degrade contaminants suspended within the water that would otherwise resist ultraviolet degradation. This makes cavitation a promising method of water treatment.
Ultra violet light is capable of killing bacteria and living contaminants in water. Short wavelength UV light, in the range of 10 nm to 400 nm, kills cells by interacting with their structures and disrupting DNA (NIOSH, 2008). UV light is capable of killing up to 99.99% of bacteria in clear water. This system of water purification is both cost effective and nontoxicchemical free but it cannot break down particle contaminants that bacteria tend to live in. However in combination with a particle filtration system, or in our case a cavitation system, UV reactors are simple to maintain, cost effective and chemical free.
The concise purpose of this team’s senior design project will be to develop a fluid flow test apparatus to demonstrate the degree of effectiveness of the combination of UV radi.
IRJET- Intelligent Detection and Elimination of Blockage in Sewage pipes ...IRJET Journal
1) The document describes a robotic system designed to detect and clear blockages in sewage pipes as a safer alternative to human workers.
2) The robot uses ultrasonic sensors to detect blockages and then clears them using either high-pressure water pumping or a rotating cutting mechanism.
3) A wireless camera and other sensors allow a remote operator to monitor the robot's progress through the pipes. This robotic system aims to eliminate health and safety risks for human sewage workers.
When using the equipment of the AQUIFER company you save on:
- costs of installation of equipment
- the personnel (installations work in the automatic mode);
- expendables (in the course of work of installation public sorption materials of the Russian production are used, also in some cases when disinfecting food table salt is used)
The total cost of the equipment depends on productivity of installation, requirements imposed by the customer to the cleared water and a chemical composition of initial water.
IRJET- Experimental Analysis of Wastewater in Shahu Campus of Pune CityIRJET Journal
This document summarizes a study analyzing wastewater from a hostel campus in Pune, India. The study used a root zone treatment system with three ferrocement tanks containing various filter media like soil and aggregate layers. Wastewater samples were collected from the hostel and their biochemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, total suspended solids, and total dissolved solids were analyzed before and after treatment. The results showed reductions in these parameters after treatment, indicating the root zone system was effective at wastewater treatment while providing a low-cost option.
TR i NO is a proposed triple stage water purification system for community use. It uses nano-scale filters to remove particulate, chemical, and biological impurities from water.

These radicals degrade contaminants suspended within the water that would otherwise resist ultraviolet degradation. This makes cavitation a promising method of water treatment.
Ultra violet light is capable of killing bacteria and living contaminants in water. Short wavelength UV light, in the range of 10 nm to 400 nm, kills cells by interacting with their structures and disrupting DNA (NIOSH, 2008). UV light is capable of killing up to 99.99% of bacteria in clear water. This system of water purification is both cost effective and nontoxicchemical free but it cannot break down particle contaminants that bacteria tend to live in. However in combination with a particle filtration system, or in our case a cavitation system, UV reactors are simple to maintain, cost effective and chemical free.
The concise purpose of this team’s senior design project will be to develop a fluid flow test apparatus to demonstrate the degree of effectiveness of the combination of UV radi.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

3. Current Status
of drinking water.
Water is the most critical natural resource that is
turning toxic and scarce day after day.
It is very well acknowledged and understood
amongst researchers and experts that of potential
causes for Global conflict - if any, then the third world
war will most likely be based on control of water.
Even filtered water that is very commonly being
consumed has unacceptable levels of ph, making our
population very vulnerable to chronic diseases.
Most abundantly used filtration technologies
create 60-70% water wastage and also carry a lot of
additional costs like electricity, non-recyclable
plastic bodies and filters, branding and marketing
costs.

4. Project “PAANI”
We started Project "PAANI“ (Hindi for water) and
researched deeply on the subject. We found that
the current water-filtering technologies create 60-
70% water wastage and also carry a lot of
additional costs like electricity, non-recyclable
plastic bodies and filters, branding and
marketing costs. They also eliminate the most
needed minerals like Magnesium, Sodium and
Potassium and don’t fulfil natural hydration needs
of body. Causing illnesses.

NanoMesh filters to reach the last mile
All filters need housings so that they can serve the end-user. We have two
housed filters/water skid designs (described in the next slide) to reach the
last mile. The skids are designed in a way that it can be mounted on a
vehicle for ease of relocation.
They can be used as a portable Water ATM.
moreino
In the case of groundwater from wells and hand-pumps or rainwater, the filtration capacity of one filter is as high as 20,000
litres. But in case of drain water or highly contaminated water, a filter capacity may drop as low as 4000 litres. we have
taken a median figure of 10,000 litres of filtered water output per filter after which it would need replacement.

Managers
At every location, there would be a dedicated manager per
Water ATM so that he/she can take care of safety and
delivery operations of the machine.
Job profile of a manager will be confined to the body of the
machine.
• The entire operations of water output per hour,
• Matching of input command with output,
• Geo-tagging of machines and,
• Replacement life cycle of filters
All will run through a design based upon
BlockChain Technology.

Why BlockChain Technology for water supply
system?
A transparent data sharing design would ensure optimum usage of network as well as
efficient diagnosis of every problem. Water ATM would act as independent node of the
distributed network and would send real time operational status and diagnostic reports to
the Water ATM Operations Centre (SOC) ensuring security and integrity of all data
transmissions. The system would be robust even if its individual machines may not work at
times.
moreino
To eliminate single-point failure possibility of such a
sensitive distribution system.1
Long-term cost of running a such centralized network
would be much higher than running a decentralized
network.
2
Immunity from crashing of system - if the problem comes
at particular nodes, they can be corrected without
disturbing the entire system as well as jeopardizing the
data integrity of the entire system.

Tokens will be accessible to key stakeholders such as Filter
manufacturers, Filter Housing vendor, Water ATM manager,
Bulk water suppliers and retail users of the project and all of
them would be connected with a blockchain-based supply
chain.
What is the
BlockChain
architecture of this
project?
To monetize water into a token
(SIMPAL-1 token), we have fixed
a metric of measuring water
output. On which, the water ATM
will dispense water.
One SIMPAL-1 token is
anchored to 100 litres of filtered
water. Hence 1 filter is linked
with 100 SIMPAL-1 tokens (as 1
filter provides 10,000 litres of
water output).
12. Fair Price Mechanism
All invoices would be uploaded to the blockchain by
SIMPAL PORTAL as well as there would be a mandatory
reference for a sustainable price declared every quarter.
There would be price hedge token fund worth 20 million
tokens that would be used as a price insurance
mechanism to overcome the unseen factors like filter
manufacturing process challenges or steel price-hikes.
Which may force the manufacturers to raise prices and
hence token prices would increase.
1 2
SIMPAL would ensure that unfair hoarding and unfair
pricing of tokens are restricted by regular issuance of
tokens into the market. For that, a segment of token
issuance is reserved for the members of cooperative
society that would be mentored by INSIST.

SIMPAL
The total number of SIMPAL-1 (FWUT) token supply is capped at 300 million out of which
approx. 200 million is directly tied to continuous filter supply in the market. The tokens would be
issued at the rate of 100 FWUT per filter in the first cycle; 50 FWUT per filter in the second cycle
and this would go on halving per filter release till the fifth cycle.
For the rest 100 million token supply, there are four major stakeholders for whom tokens are reserved:
14. Uniqueness of the
Project: Instant
liquidity and high
demand
Total cost includes four costs;
a. Cost of the filter (30%),
b. Cost of the housings (50%),
c. Logistics cost (10%) and
d. Miscellaneous costs (10%).
The maximum cost outlay is in the
first life-cycle of filter supply. After
that, its cost goes down
drastically because cost of
housings would be zero in the
second cycle.
(For more details, please refer to the
white paper)
The housings, being made with stainless steel, would have a life span of
over 25 years per unit. So, a single unit can have 1000+ number of
cycles over its lifetime.

NOTE:
• The cost component A will go down from second cycle and reduce to half by fifth cycle.
• The Filters’ Housing being made of Stainless Steel will have a minimum life span of 25 years and hence would not require
replacement in short to mid-term.
• Since Filters’ Housings will be part of Logistics in first cycle only, it will be zero in second cycle.

Users
The water cooperative would be key adoption driver and credibility builder of the project.
These people would ensure that water cost remains within limit. The first 100,000 members would be
given 1000 litres of water free so that they can feel the importance of safe drinking water and notice its
positive impact on their health. They will act as a social magnet for the expansion of this project so that a
lot of unnecessary advertising and marketing costs are avoided.
Since 10% of tokens are reserved for them, they can feel safe that they will not have to struggle for
tokens in an open market.
The members of cooperative can become part of any of these three stakeholders. They can be users,
bulk suppliers and ATM managers also.
This would generate a serious fair price mechanism as well as quality control too.
17. 1 7
Creating awareness
Each of the Water skids will also come with a water
use awareness program run by the Water
Cooperative. It will create massive amount of
public participation in safety of water. Some
charitable organizations, Corporate CSR initiatives
or local governments may buy Water ATMs and
install them in slums, poor villages, hospitals,
schools, public places.
Saving water
It will help avoid the drawing of deep-bed
groundwater to the tune of 80 billion litres because
the NanoMesh filters can purify rainwater, dirty tap
water, hand-pump water and even other sources of
polluted water.
Uncalculated Spill-over Benefits of the project
18. 1 8
400,000 Jobs
To be more precise, each 2500 LPH skid will
generate a minimum of 5 people per skid. So
for 80,000 skids we are talking about 400,000
jobs through the Water Cooperative and other
channels. Additional services will be organically
added.
PET Bottles
Over 80,000 million PET bottles will be prevented
from being manufactured during the first eight cycles of
this project. For 80,000 million PET bottles, 82.2 gm x
2 X 80,000 = 13152000 million gm of CO2 will be
saved. That makes nearly 13.2 million tonnes of
carbon dioxide . The current price of one tonne of
carbon credit is around $10. It means that this project
would save a value worth $130 million over first set
of eight cycles only. This cost is not factored into the
project as of now.

Freedom to the Women
It is estimated that a woman in a water starved
region has to spend 4 hours to collect enough
drinking water. This is totally eliminated and
instead women will be given the opportunity to
earn incomes by participating in the tokenized
water economy.
Disease Free Water
Millions of people would be free of ARSENIC
polluted water and there would be no threat from
all water borne diseases that account for 80 % of
all diseases in India today. The savings on health
cost front are also not calculated but their size is so
immense that it can avoid health epidemics,
hospitalization costs and collateral damage of
diseases.
20. At the end of day, this project saves not just money rather
it underlines a long-forgotten fact that humans were gifted
abundance but they invented money and ended up with
creating scarcity. This project turns waste back into gold
and thus returns abundance back to humanity. This project
gives community - the power to price water.
