介绍

The purpose of this experiment was to test the effectiveness of composite filters made from citrus peels and citrus pectin along with charcoal and sand on removing heavy metal pollutants from the waters of Tar Creek. A toxicity test was also done before and after filtration using Daphnia magna. Charcoal and sand were used as filtrates to decrease the TDS and neutralize the pH of the water after filtration.  Daphnia magna were used as toxicity test before and after filtration.

假设

It was hypothesized that the composite filters (citrus + sand +charcoal) will decrease the heavy metal concentration, neutralize the pH, and decrease the TDS after filtration. It was also hypothesized that a higher percentage of Daphnia magna will survive in the filtered water as compared to the unfiltered water.

结论

Based on our findings a higher percentage of Daphnia after filtration.
