They chose this design based on its green potential, as they are interested in the issues of water recycling and the possibility of reusing grey water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Beginning the prototype<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The ProtoTeam at Canterbury Christ Church University started the design phrase of this project in October 2023 which consists of throwing ideas around, creating an inspiration board of ideas and asking questions. Grey water recycling is a system that can be built into modern buildings but the team wonder how can it be retrofitted into older buildings? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The team are planning to do a lot of the manufacturing in-house as they have already had success with making a pump for a final-year project. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can&#8217;t wait for the next update on this prototype when they have finalised the designs and decided on the manufacturing processes they will be using.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Canterbury Christ Church University will turn Year 3 pupil Charlie\u2019s Handy Greywater Pump idea into reality for their prototype build as part of a continued partnership between Canterbury Christ Church&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":684131,"featured_media":8816,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[303],"tags":[306],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.6 -
