Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to a solar-driven water treatment device that assists users in purifying water by detecting bacterial colonies, monitoring changes in water color, identifying specific enzymes, and measuring the pH level, enabling efficient and environmentally sustainable water treatment based on real-time analysis of contaminants and water quality for safe and optimal use.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Water treatment is a critical process aimed at improving the quality of water to make it safe for consumption, industrial use, and environmental sustainability. It addresses the need to remove contaminants such as bacteria, viruses, chemicals, heavy metals, and suspended solids that pose health risks to humans and aquatic life. As the global population grows and natural water resources are increasingly polluted, the importance of water treatment becomes more evident. Effective treatment ensures that water meets the required standards for drinking, irrigation, and industrial processes. It helps prevent waterborne diseases, reduces the environmental impact of pollution, and supports the conservation of freshwater resources. Additionally, water treatment plays a crucial role in protecting ecosystems, maintaining biodiversity, and ensuring that water remains a sustainable resource for future generations. In the face of climate change and urbanization, water treatment technologies and strategies are essential to safeguard public health and the environment.

[0003] Traditional water treatment methods, such as sedimentation, filtration, and chlorination, have been used for centuries to purify water. Sedimentation involves allowing particles to settle at the bottom of a tank, while filtration uses sand or charcoal to remove remaining impurities. Chlorination is commonly employed to disinfect the water by killing pathogens. Though these methods can be effective in removing larger contaminants, they have notable drawbacks. Sedimentation is time-consuming and may not remove fine particles or dissolved chemicals. Filtration may be ineffective against certain pathogens or harmful substances like heavy metals. Chlorination, while disinfecting water, can leave harmful by-products like chlorine by-products (THMs) that pose health risks. Furthermore, traditional methods often fail to address emerging contaminants such as pharmaceuticals or pesticides. These limitations highlight the need for more advanced water treatment technologies to ensure safer, cleaner water for growing populations and evolving environmental challenges.

[0006] Conventionally, many devices in the field of water management focus on improving water quality or monitoring parameters such as flow rate and contamination levels, yet they fail to assist users in the detailed purification process by detecting specific bacterial colonies, monitoring changes in water color, identifying specific enzymes present, and measuring the pH level, which are crucial indicators for assessing and adjusting water quality. These traditional devices do not provide real-time, comprehensive analysis of the water's chemical and biological composition, limiting their ability to offer tailored treatment solutions that ensure safe, potable water for diverse applications.

[0021] The present invention relates to a solar-driven water treatment device designed to assist users in purifying water by analyzing the presence and concentration of bacterial colonies, monitoring changes in water color, detecting specific enzymes, and measuring the pH level, providing a comprehensive, eco-friendly, and efficient solution for real-time water quality assessment and treatment to ensure safe, potable water in various environmental conditions without reliance on external power sources.

[0022] Referring to Figure 1, an isometric view of a solar-driven water treatment device is illustrated, comprising a cuboidal housing 101 mounted with a solar panel 113, a sensing module 114 embedded with inner walls of the housing 101, a multi-sectioned chamber 102 mounted on the housing 101 integrated with a motorized iris unit 103, a pair of spiral-shaped electrodes 115 positioned inside the housing 101, a L-shaped bracket 104 provided with the housing 101, a V-shaped rod 105 connected in between the bracket 104 and top of the electrodes 115, an artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 106 installed on the housing 101, multiple motorized iris holes 107 integrated on bottom portion of the housing 101, an activated carbon container 108 arranged beneath the housing 101, an electronic nozzle 116 integrated with a receptacle 109 provided on the housing, a solar panel tilting mechanisms 110 configured with the solar panel 113, multiple reflectors 111 attached to top of the housing 101, each reflectors 111 being adjustable via a motorized ball-and-socket joint and a pair of motorized vertical sliders 112 positioned within the housing 101, facing each other, and the sliders 112 with a circular cleaning ring 117.

[0023] The device proposed herein includes a cuboidal housing 101 that is developed to be positioned on a fixed surface and filled with contaminated water, for treatment of the water. The body as mentioned herein serves as a structural foundation to various components associated with the device, wherein the body is made up of material that includes but not limited to stainless steel, which in turn ensures that the device is of generous size and is light in weight.

[0024] The housing 101 is equipped with a solar panel 113 that captures solar energy, which is then converted into electrical power and stored in a main battery connected to the device, enabling the device to function autonomously by relying on renewable energy from sunlight for prolonged operation without the need for external power sources or frequent recharging.

[0025] In order to activate functioning of the device, a user is required to manually switch on the device by pressing a button positioned on the housing 101, wherein the button used herein is a push button. Upon pressing of the button, the circuits get closed allowing conduction of electricity that leads to activation of the device and vice versa.

[0026] Upon activation of the device by the user, a sensing module 114 embedded with inner walls of the housing 101 detects presence and concentration of bacterial colonies, changes in water color and specific enzymes in the stored water. The sensing module 114 as mentioned herein comprises an electrochemical sensor, optical absorption sensor and a bio-sensor for detecting presence and concentration of bacterial colonies, changes in water color and specific enzymes in the stored water, respectively.

[0027] The electrochemical sensor to detect presence and concentration of bacterial colonies in the stored water. The electrochemical sensor detects the presence and concentration of bacterial colonies in stored water by measuring changes in electrical properties, such as impedance, current, or voltage, in response to bacterial activity. The sensor typically contains electrodes coated with bio-recognition elements that specifically bind to bacterial antigens or metabolic products. When bacteria are present, they interact with the sensor surface, triggering a chemical reaction that generates a measurable electrical signal. The magnitude of this signal correlates with the concentration of bacteria in the water, allowing an inbuilt microcontroller embedded within the housing 101 to detect presence and concentration of bacterial colonies in the stored water.

[0028] The optical absorption sensor detects changes in color of the stored water by measuring the absorption of light at specific wavelengths as it passes through the water. The sensor emits light through the water sample and analyzes the amount of light that is absorbed by the water. The presence of dissolved substances, such as pollutants, organic matter, or microbial contaminants, alters the color and absorption characteristics of the water. By comparing the intensity of light absorbed at different wavelengths, the sensor detects changes in water color, which are indicative of water quality or contamination of water, allowing the microcontroller to detect changes in color of the stored water.

[0029] The biosensor detects specific enzymes in stored water works by utilizing a biological recognition element, such as an enzyme or antibody that selectively binds to the target enzyme. The sensor typically consists of a bio recognition layer (e.g., immobilized enzyme or receptor) attached to an electrode or transducer. When the target enzyme interacts with the recognition element, it triggers a biochemical reaction, generating a detectable signal, often in the form of a change in electrical current, potential, or optical properties. The intensity of this signal correlates with the concentration of the specific enzyme, allowing the microcontroller to detect presence and concentration of specific enzymes in the stored water.

[0030] Based on the determined presence and concentration of bacterial colonies, changes in water color and specific enzymes in the stored water, respectively, the microcontroller actuates a motorized iris unit 103 integrated with multi-sectioned chamber 102 mounted on the housing 101 to dispense the biocatalyst enzyme and oxidizing agents within the water. The iris unit 103 typically refers to the iris or aperture mechanism in the camera or optical instruments as it works in a similar manner to that of a human eye. The iris consists several thin and overlapping blades that forms an adjustable opening of the unit. Upon actuation of the iris unit 103 by the microcontroller the blades move apart resulting in the widening of mouth portion of the chamber 102, allowing the dispensing of biocatalyst enzyme and oxidizing agents within the water, to break down complex organic pollutants, disinfect the water and eliminate undesired odors or color, respectively.

[0031] A pair of secondary batteries connected to the main battery, and directly linked to a pair of spiral-shaped electrodes 115 positioned inside the housing 101 are activated by the microcontroller to supply current necessary for ion release in the stored water. The secondary batteries supply additional electrical current, independent of the main battery, to the electrodes 115. This current flows through the electrodes 115, triggering an electrochemical reaction at their surface that results in the release of ions into the water. The spiral shape of the electrodes 115 maximizes surface area, enhancing ion release efficiency. The microcontroller monitors and controls the timing, voltage and current supplied to the electrodes 115, ensuring optimal ionization of the stored water.

[0032] A voltage sensor monitors the battery-regulated voltage during ionization detects and measures voltage changes across battery terminals and typically uses resistive or capacitive sensing elements to convert voltage into readable electrical signals. These signals reflect the battery's output stability, especially as ionization varies power demands. the sensor’s data is analyzed by the microcontroller in order to monitor the voltage and accordingly actuate a voltage regulator for regulating voltage from the battery.

[0033] The voltage regulator maintains a stable output voltage from the battery, despite changes in load or input fluctuations. It takes the unregulated input from the battery and produces a constant output voltage by adjusting the resistance or by switching components on and off rapidly (in switching regulators). Linear regulators use transistors or FETs to drop excess voltage as heat, keeping the output steady but less efficient, for effectiveness in the ionization process.

[0034] The pair of L-shaped telescopic bracket 104 are powered by a pneumatic arrangement (not shown in figure) including a pneumatic cylinder, air compressor, electronic valve, cylinder and piston. The valve is an electronic valve that allows entry/exit of compressed air from the compressor. Furthermore, the valve opens and the compressed air enters inside the cylinder thereby increasing the air pressure of the cylinder. The piston is connected to the cylinder and due to the increase in the air pressure, the piston extends. For the retraction of the piston, air is released from the cylinder to the air compressor via the valve. Thus, providing the required extension/retraction of the bracket 104 in order to adjust positioning of the electrodes 115 relative to the water.

[0035] A pair of motorized vertical sliders 112 positioned within the housing 101, facing each other, and the sliders 112 are actuated by the microcontroller to move a circular cleaning ring 117 around electrodes 115 for sludge removal. The pair of motorized vertical sliders 112 includes sliding rack and rail, such that the circular cleaning ring 117 is mounted over the rack that are electronically operated by the microcontroller for moving over the rail. The microcontroller activates the sliders 112 for performing the sliding operation. The sliders 112 is powered by a DC (direct current) motor that is activated by the microcontroller by providing required electric current to the motor. The motor comprises of a coil that converts the received electric current into mechanical force by generating magnetic field, thus the mechanical force provides the required power to the rack to provide sliding movement to the ring 117 in order to translate the ring, around electrodes 115 for sludge removal.

[0036] Upon appropriate positioning of the electrodes 115 relative to the water, a pair of motorized ball-and-socket joint mounted with a V-shaped rod 105 in between the bracket 104 and top portion of the electrodes 115 is actuated by the microcontroller to provide a circular motion to the electrodes 115 for enhanced mass transfer of ions into the water. The motorized ball and socket joint provides a rotation to the electrodes 115 for aiding the electrodes 115 to turn at a required angle. The ball and socket joint is a coupling consisting of a ball joint securely locked within a socket joint, where the ball joint is able to move in a 360-dgree rotation within the socket thus, providing the required rotational motion to the electrodes 115. The motorized ball and socket joint is powered by a DC (direct current) motor that is actuated by the microcontroller thus providing circular movement to the electrodes 115 to enable circular motion for enhanced mass transfer of ions, and improving uniformity of electric field.

[0037] An artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 106 installed on the housing 101 is activated by the microcontroller to monitor electrode buildup. The imaging unit 106 comprises of an image capturing arrangement including a set of lenses that captures multiple images of the housing 101, and the captured images are stored within memory of the imaging unit 106 in form of an optical data. The imaging unit 106 also comprises of a processor that is integrated with artificial intelligence protocols, such that the processor processes the optical data and extracts the required data from the captured images. The extracted data is further converted into digital pulses and bits and are further transmitted to the microcontroller. The microcontroller processes the received data and determines electrode buildup.

[0038] In response to the determined scaling or organic electrode buildup, the microcontroller activates a polarity-reversing switch positioned between main battery and each electrode to reverse polarity of current. The polarity-reversing switch positioned between the main battery and each electrode alternates the direction of the current flowing through the electrodes 115. When activated by the microcontroller, the switch reverses the polarity of the electrical current supplied to the electrodes 115. This reversal ensures that both electrodes 115 undergo opposite electrochemical reactions, preventing electrode degradation and ensuring more uniform ion release over time to maintain efficient operation of the water treatment process.

[0039] An AC converter is connected between the main battery and the polarity-reversing switch, ensuring a steady, consistent power supply to prevent the buildup of gas bubbles on the electrodes 115, and AC converter optimizing the ionization process and improving overall efficiency of electrocoagulation process. The AC converter connected between the main battery and the polarity-reversing switch converts the DC power from the battery into alternating current (AC) to prevent the continuous buildup of gas bubbles on the electrodes 115, which may occur with direct current (DC) by regularly changing the direction of the current flow. The polarity reversal induced by the AC current optimizes the ionization process, ensuring more efficient electrochemical reactions and minimizing electrode corrosion. By alternating the current, the AC converter enhances the electrocoagulation process, improving ion release and overall water treatment efficiency while maintaining consistent power delivery to the system.

[0040] A conductivity sensor attached to each of the electrodes 115 monitors ion concentration in water. The conductivity sensor monitors ion concentration in water by measuring the ability of the water to conduct an electrical current. The sensor consists of two electrodes 115 placed in the water, which are connected to a power source and a measurement device. When a voltage is applied, ions in the water act as charge carriers, allowing current to flow between the electrodes 115. The more ions present, the higher the conductivity. The sensor detects this current flow, and the level of conductivity is directly related to the ion concentration. Higher ion concentration results in higher conductivity, allowing the microcontroller to monitor ion concentration in water. In response to the monitored ion concentration in water, the microcontroller adjusts current supplied to the electrodes 115 to maintain optimal ion release for effective coagulation.

[0041] A pH sensor embedded with inner walls of the housing 101 detects pH level of the water. The pH sensor detects the pH level of water by measuring the concentration of hydrogen ions (H⁺) in the water. The sensor typically consists of a glass electrode and a reference electrode. The glass electrode, which is sensitive to hydrogen ions, develops a potential difference when immersed in water. This potential is proportional to the pH of the solution. The reference electrode provides a stable reference voltage. The sensor transmits this potential difference to the microcontroller, which converts the voltage into a corresponding pH value, allowing real-time monitoring of pH level of the water.

[0042] In response to the monitored pH level of the water, an electronic nozzle 116 integrated with a receptacle 109 provided on the housing 101 is actuated by the microcontroller dispense small amounts of acidic and basic solutions into the water. The electronic nozzle 116 works by utilizing electrical energy to atomize the flow solution in a controlled flow pattern by converting the pressure energy of a fluid into kinetic energy, which increases the fluid's velocity to get dispensed. Upon actuation of nozzle 116 by the microcontroller, the electric motor or the pump pressurizes solutions within the receptacle 109, increasing its pressure significantly. High pressure enables the solution to get dispensed out with a high force into the water in small amounts to adjust pH level of the water.

[0043] Once contaminants have been adequately removed by electrocoagulation process, multiple motorized iris holes 107 integrated on bottom portion of the housing 101 are actuated by the microcontroller to open for allowing water to flow into an activated carbon container 108 arranged beneath the housing 101 for further filtration to eliminate remaining pathogens and microorganisms. The actuation of the motorized iris holes 107 works in the same manner as the iris unit 103 to open for allowing water to flow into an activated carbon container 108 for further filtration to eliminate remaining pathogens and microorganisms, ensuring water is safe and fully treated.

[0044] A sun sensor mounted on the housing 101 detects intensity and direction of sunlight. The sun sensor works by detecting both the intensity and direction of sunlight, providing valuable data for various applications like solar energy systems or navigation and typically consists of an array of photodiodes or phototransistors that measure the light intensity falling on them. The sensor determines direction of sunlight by comparing the relative intensity across multiple sensors positioned in different directions. By analyzing the variations in intensity, the sensor calculates the position of the sun in the sky. This information is then processed by the microcontroller to detect intensity and direction of sunlight.

[0045] In response to the detected intensity and direction of sunlight, a solar panel tilting mechanisms 110 configured with the solar panel 113 is actuated by the microcontroller to adjust orientation of the solar panel 113 for efficient harnessing of solar energy. The solar panel tilting mechanisms 110 includes a motorized ball and socket joint provides a rotation to the solar panel 113 for aiding the solar panel 113 to turn at a required angle. The ball and socket joint is a coupling consisting of a ball joint securely locked within a socket joint, where the ball joint is able to move in a 360-dgree rotation within the socket thus, providing the required rotational motion to the solar panel 113. The ball and socket joint is powered by a DC (direct current) motor that is actuated by the microcontroller thus providing multidirectional movement to the solar panel 113 to adjust orientation of the solar panel 113 for efficient harnessing of solar energy.

[0046] A motorized ball-and-socket joint assembled in between multiple reflectors 111 attached to top of the housing 101 are actuated by the microcontroller to redirect sunlight onto the solar panel 113. The motorized ball and socket joint provides a rotation to the solar panel 113 for aiding the solar panel 113 to turn at a required angle. The ball and socket joint is a coupling consisting of a ball joint securely locked within a socket joint, where the ball joint is able to move in a 360-dgree rotation within the socket thus, providing the required rotational motion to the solar panel 113 The motorized ball and socket joint is powered by a DC (direct current) motor that is actuated by the microcontroller thus providing multidirectional movement to the solar panel 113 to redirect sunlight onto the solar panel 113, to ensure optimal reflection and efficient energy capture.
