ALDON Innovating Science STEM Investigations: Design a Water Filter (Materials for 15 Groups)

How is the water that comes out of our faucets made safe for consumption? This classroom lab kit aims to have students be able to answer that question by teaching them about water filtration systems. In addition to learning about water filtration plants, students will also be able to engineer, develop, and evaluate their own water filter. This kit contains enough material for 15 groups of students, and includes instructions and safety data sheets for all components.
