Water Wall by Fusion Point
Project Created by a multidisciplinary team from IED Barcelona, ESADE and UPC during the Challenge Based Innovation 2018 by CERN
Academic year
2018/2019
Water Wall, features three filters: a sand filter, an activated charcoal filter, and a plasma filter / HEPF. These filters allow one to use 80% of grey water and also to analyse users’ water-consumption patterns. Furthermore, with the usage of the Internet of Things, there are plans to turn Water Wall into new water purification systems that could be sold to companies and other households, creating revenue for users
Team Water Wall is composed of:
Francesco Maria Lucini - IED Barcelona
Miguel Sanchez Rubio - ESADE
Roberto Alfredo Dager - ESADE
Sara El Mehtar - UPC Barcelona
