Water is present everywhere on earth, but it needs to be purified before it can be consumed. Here comes the difficult part. It needs electricity to or fuel along with large systems to purify it and make it consumable. So here we propose a pedal based water purification system that uses pedal power to purify water and make it available for drinking. The design and fabrication of pedal powered water purifier includes sprocket chain system with power generator dynamo along with supporting frame, copper piping interfaced with filters, container with integrated heating element and supporting circuit to achieve this system development. The system uses a pedal fixed sprocket with chain attached to supply circular force to the dynamo to be driven. The power generated by dynamo is then used to power the heating system which heats up the water in a container to boiling point. The water before getting heated is passed through filters to remove large particles and basic filtering. The filtered water is boiled to get steam which is then passed through copper pipes in order to drive maximum steam through low temperature copper pipes which provide water on the other end of the pipes. The container on the other end is used to draw pure water from it using a tap. Thus we achieve a pedal powered water purification system as a renewable water purifier.
