ABSTRACT
This paper describes the design and construction of the pedal-operated power pump and purefication are done
especially for the discharge and purefication of the water. The proposed pump is a rotary pump operated by
the pedal power through rear wheel.In this the water enters axially through the vane eye and exits radially.In
this paper, necessary dimensions are calculated for the design Purification is the process of purifying of any
substance and thus involves filtration . Purification the water by cycling is useful in purifying the water by
means of a cycle operated with reverse osmosis process. It includes the cycle pedal being rotated and inlet being
connected to the membrane of the Reverse Osmosis setup. It is used to increase the discharge level of the water
involved in purification. Hence the amount of water used can be purified and used by these means of
purification with a lots of water borne diseases. This method is used in providing he purified water that can be
available for all people in a very low cost. An Most of the earth is covered by Water but it needs to be purified
before we consumed it. In Generally water purification needs electricity or fuel along with large systems
making purified water more costly. But there are a lot of different purification methods which needs no
electricity with minimum cost. One of the purification method is pedal operated water purification . In this
purification process mainly basic Bernoulli principle is used which say that an increase in the velocity of a
fluid occurs simultaneously with decrease in pressure or a decrease in the fluid potential energy. Different
people worked on this type of water purification system and came up with some uniquie designs.

INTRODUCTION
Pedal operated water pumping is done by pedal power on mechanical energy without electricity and
purification through water filters and pump powered by the discharge of electricity through dynamo
connected at the rare wheel .It is use to lift and supply the water in rural or urban area where there is no
electricity or load shedding and also to stay fit. When the pedal is done biscycle wheel rotates, so finally it
rotates a rotary pump connected at the rare wheel which supply the water from source, and electricity is
generated through the rotation of dynamo connected at the rare wheel which will supply power to the
purefication pump to filter the waterIn pedal operated water pump a rotary water pump which is run by
rotating the pedal of a cycle .The system comprises a bicycle adjust with supporting stand wich in contact
with the rotor of pump and dynamo through this process of paddling is used to lift water from pipe into the
form for cultivation..The Earth is covered mostly by water,. Water is main element on earth and is very essential
to sustain life, and a satisfactory and safe supply must be available to all. But nowadays, the water is getting
contaminated due to industrialization which produce large amount of wastes which contains toxic chemicals and
pollutants which leads to many water related diseases. supporting stand which in contact with the centrifugal of
pump and dynamo through this process of paddling is used to lift water from pipe into the form for cultivation

Yuichi katsuaraet .al 2011 [4]president of Nippon basic company was the primary company to
offer Portable Water Purifying System “Cycloclean” powered by pedaling bicycle to form 5 liter(max.) of
unpolluted water during a minute at a technology fair in Tokyo. It need man power to show a
motorcycle chain driving motor to pump water through series of filter (without the utilization of
electricity). Clean water are often utilized for domestic purpose. Peramanan et. al 2014 [5] has studied the
fabrication of Human Power Reverse Osmosis Water Purification Process. The device use pedal to harms
human motion to convert it into usable power to run a reverse osmosis filtration system.

etc all., discussed that the human power is beneficial for production or generation of electricity to
satisfy the need of electricity in lifestyle by use of dynamo and solar array for its use in stationary and
mobile condition . it's also possible to directly power production by DC powered equipment like alow
power pump without employing a battery. Appliances like a DC television, light or radio can also be
used. Installing residential solar panels for home can bring big financial benefits, especially within
the sort of permanently reduced energy bills.
METHODOLOGY
The first step of creating power operated and pump is that the preparation of the stand scrap low-carbon
steel pipes are made into sufficient pieves and are welded together to urge the stand. The stand is then
connected with the rear wheel of the bicycle .By considering the wheel and rotar the stand is connected
by using the nut and bolts ,the suction and delivery pipes are then connected to the suction and delivery
ports respectively .The flow of water is measured using tachometer..The Flow of water is measured by
using the measuring tank and stopwatch. .In this purification process mainly the essential Bernoulli's
principle is employed which states that a rise within the speed of a fluid occurs simultaneously with a
decrease in pressure or a decrease within the fluid's P.E. ..The main setup of the whole design is
split into three different stages wont to purify the water. The stages are Generator, Boiler and
Condenser. Initially the water which is contaminated is purified by allowing the water into pump
with the assistance of chain drive..In this arrangement generally chain drive is employed to
transmit energy from driver shaft to driven shaft. Chain drives efficiency is more as compared to belt
drives. Chain drives can maintain the speed ratio constant and may be suits for little and
enormous distances from 3mts to eight mts .Chain drives can produce less load on shaft in order that we
will do effective pedaling with low overall maintenance. in order that we prefer chain drive as
a transmission to 12volt DC Pump also as generator.The contaminated water is drawn to Boiler with the
assistance of pump. The generator is employed to develop the energy to electric power in order that the
contaminated water is heated within the boiler. The boiler is actually a closed vessel inside which water
is stored because the generator gives the input the boiler heats the pollutant water. After heating the
water within the boiler, it turns in to vapour then it goes to condenser. The condenser is employed to
chill down and condense the water which comes from the boiler. Then the clean water which is
condensed is stored during a container.

PRINCIPAL
Pump may be a device which rises or transfers water at the expense of power input ,it during
a machine and style to elevate ,deliver and move water or a tool that transfers mechanical enegry into
the potential and kinematic energy of a water Rotary pump are positive displacement pump that utilize
rotart rather thane Reciprocrating motion in their pumping action Pedaling will start the rotar and
therefore the water discharge from the source to the tank .Later the pumped water is tranfered to the
nxt tank and stored there . From there the water is pumped forward to the filters for the filteration
through the Ro water filtersthe project involves fabrication of pedal operated water pumping and
purification unit. The energy obtained by pedaling the pedaling system is transferred to the drive train
using the chain and sprocket drive. The chain and sprocket drive used is of required speed ratio
so because the pedaling action of person makes the specified energy also as speed to drive the pump.
The pump is connected to the impure cistern . because the user pedals the impure water from the tank is
pumped to the purification unit. The purification unit purifies the impure water and provides to the
outlet. Thus this project can function a way to pump the water from the tank using pedal power also as
purify the water from the tank. additionally to the present the a part of the drive is employed to
get electricity. The project consists of alittle Generator which is attached to the pedaling unit employing
a speed reduction drive. because the pedaling action takes place, the generator also rotates, thereby
generating electricity. The generated electricity is stored during a battery which may be utilized in case
of power cutoffs
