1. INTRODUCTION

Reverse Osmosis is very popular technology that is used around the world for removing ions, unwanted molecules and larger particles from drinking water. Reverse Osmosis can remove many types of dissolved and suspended chemical species as well as biological ones from water and is used in both industrial process and production of potable water. The result is that the solute is retained on the pressurized side and the solvent is allowed to pass to the other side. This very technology has been incorporated in designing a bottle which can be used to covert contaminated water to clean and drinkable water and can be carried anywhere. It is a common fact that drinking water is difficult to find in places like forests, dessert and alsoin rural areas. Therefore, the person who has access to this bottle can easily obtain drinking water by following the given simple instructions. The bottle has been designed while considering several parameters such as weight, strength, aesthetics and value to customer. Polypropylene (PP) and LDPE (Low parameters.

This is a research based on mechanical properties of blind of high density polyethane (HDPE) and Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE). Various ratios (80/20, 60/40, 40/60 and 20/80) of HDPE & LDPE blends were tested. Finally , the research showed the blend with the composition (HDPE (40)/LDPE (60)) comparatively better overall mechanical Properties.

2.4 Performance of Activated Carbon in Water Filters:
