摘要：This project deals with the filtration of waste water using corncobs which are generally used as fuelwhich creates air pollution and global warming. Corn cobs are one of the most plentiful and important agriculturalwastes in maize cultivation. Thus, a matter of primary concern is the economical and efficient utilization of these corncobs for a purpose. As they are porous, they can be used as water filtrates.This project discusses about a low cost water filtration system which uses corncobs as filter materials in its variousforms. As we know before disposing of waste water from industry, the industrial water has to undergo various chemicalprocess which uses large amount of money, which can be reduced to a large extent when replaced by these filters at thesource where industrial waste water is produced. With the increasing industrialization, amount of waste water generatedis increasing at alarming rate, so with the help of this cost efficient technology, the waste water generated in theindustries can be decreased to a large extent at the source itself.
