Dripp is my submission for my final major project at university, conducting a self-led brief, "reducing the health impacts of microplastics in water sources". Detailed research revealed bottled water was the primary source of microplastic ingestion, with users consuming up to 90,000 particles annually. Other highlights included tap water, poisoning drinkers with 4000 particles annually, and finally, identifying washing machines acting as a producer of microplastics, releasing up to 800,000 polymer particles. Dripp is a heavily research-based project, using detailed CAD designs and design for manufacture methods to create a realistic, viable solution to the Microplastic Epidemic. This page currently acts as an update page for prospective employers and collaborators, allowing them to receive a detailed understanding of my design process and direct skillset. The Dripp water bottle filter is designed to remove all microplastics from bottled drinks. Using several layers of micron mesh, the filter catches all micrplastics down to a size of 10 microns. The Dripp filter also utilises a mechanical iris, that allows the product to be secured onto any bottle neck size, whether it be a 5 or 2 litre bottle. Made from 100% recycled ABS, this water filter aims to remove the threat of Microplastics to humans.
