Abstract -The design and manufacture of the waste water cleaning system are important aspects of this project. “Fabrication of semi automatic water cleaning system for rivers and lakes” is a system that removes debris and waste particles from the water surfaces and carefully arranges the waste for disposal into a water body.Thisresearchworkexaminedthecurrentpositionof our nation’s waterways, which was dumping tones of sewagewasteandfilled withtoxicpollutantsandharmful wastes.Asaresultoftherapidincreaseinlandandwater pollutioninthemodeofgarbage,aquaticanimals’livesare being disrupted and they are becoming endangered. A remote control machine will collect waste products from water bodies, resulting in a reduction in contaminants in the water, with little disruption to aquatic life and fewer difficulties. The conventional and popular ways of collecting floating trash, which is positioned close to the river’s shore, are by hand or by boat, for instance. However, these methods require a sizable workforce, are costly, risky, and time consuming.

1. INTRODUCTION

One of the project’s main goals is to repay our mother naturewithatleastafewfavors." WaterisLife,Life is Water," as the saying goes, therefore protecting our limited water supplies is essential. We all know that watercovers71%ofourplanet,yetwecan’tuseitalldue to our disadvantage, or lack of technical innovation. Rivers, lakes subterranean water sources, glaciers other waterbodies make up the only fraction we may use from overall water resources. This 3% is the only water that is lifefor humans, as it is the only percentage of water that

theycantaketoquenchtheirthirstandlivetheirlives.The remaining97%,whichisfoundinoceansandseas,isnow useless due to a lack of technological innovation. It’s not that current technology isn’t capable of converting ocean and sea water into drinkable water, but the cash and investment required, as well as the efficiency, are off the charts.Asaresult,moreresearchanddevelopmentwillbe required to transform ocean and sea water into consumables.Itispossibletobuildandrefineit,butitwill takeatleastafewdecadesbeforeitbecomesareality.Due to the fact that just 3% of all water sources are safe for human use and that the majority (97%) of that water is stored in the seas, we can see that river sewage surface pollution is the biggest issue facing our planet today. The “Fabricationofsemi automaticwatercleaningsystemfor” is mostly utilized in situations when water has become contaminated by waste and needs to be removed. This model collects and removes waste from the surface of water using a conveyer mechanism. It also includes a containeratoneendoftheconveyerbelt,whichalleviates the problem of garbage collecting. This machine will remove waste products from water bodies, resulting in a reduction in contaminants in the water, resulting in less disruption to aquatic life and fewer difficulties. The most important application of this model will be in cleaning wasteproductsfromlakes,rivers,andotherwaterbodies. In this era of world, beach is the best attractive tourism place, cleaning of beach plays a major role. For this purpose, we need a machine to clean the beach. Our projectisasemi automaticbeachplasticcollectingsystem which cleans and collects plastic off seas, lakes, etc. This machine operates with a dc electric lithium polymer batteryandiscontrolledbythehelpofRFtransmitterand receiver.Inthefrontofmachinethereisacollectorwhich collects plastic and a loader chain which loads the plastic to the boat. Then boat is driven by the help of high powered brushless motor. We created this project with thegoaloffulfillingthedreamofcleanrivers.So,inorder toprotectthelimitedamountofwaterresources,thuswe have designed & fabricated a System to clean the waterbodies.

1.1 Problem statement

a) Due to a lack of waste dumping facilities, people continue the practice of throwing trash into surrounding water bodies has been increasingly popular in recent years, posing long term harmful repercussions on the area’sbiodiversityaswellasthelocalecosystem.

b) Many water creatures accidentally consume flotsam because it resembles their natural prey. Bulky plastic waste has the potential to become permanently ensnared in the digestive tracts of these animals, obstructing the passage of food and causing starvation or disease that leadstodeath.

c) To achieve a clean water body in order to reduce pollutionofrivers

This machine’s primary function in this project is to remove waste materials from the water’s surface and deposit them in a tray. The frame is welded and has the appearanceofaslope facingmachinepart.Itconsistsofan arrangement ofthe conveyorthat is installed on the shaft and bearings support; the shaft is connected to the pedestal bearing and the bearing is mounted on the M.S. angle frame.

The waste debris in thewater will beraisedasthemachineissubmergedand will migrate upward. The trash will fall into the tray once it reaches the uppermost extreme point. As a result, the water surface will be cleaned and waste particles will be safely collected from the water.

6. CONCLUSIONS

The project places a strong emphasis on operational flexibility.Thisissimpletouseandrequireslittleupkeep. This project, “Fabrication of Semi Automatic Water Cleaning System” was created in order to eliminate water contaminants including plastics, trash, and water debris that are floating on river and pond surfaces while also being very cost effective. This is primarily highly helpful for preserving human health and lengthening the lives of aquatic creatures. In the process of the project study, we overcame a lot of obstacles and learned a lot. We initially simplybeganbydefiningtheissuethataffectssocietyand the community, with a burning desire to take action. This ledus todiscoverthe expandingissueoftrashdisposalin anewlightwatersource.Asaresult,weworkeddiligently to build the project that would solve this issue. We encounteredmanytasksalongtheway,includingonethat required substantial research on the current state of the riversinIndia.Wecanthereforeconcludethatfreshwater resources were not always scarce or depleted by looking attheircurrentsituationandcomparingittotheirstatein thepast.Growingpopulationandtheirlackofsocietaland environmental awareness were the root causes. The first step is to show concern for the environment, which gives humans so much. The underlying message of this is that we must ceasepolluting our water supplies and raise awareness of them in more political and social contexts. The next step is to technologically clean the fresh water supplies, for which we have created our project. Therefore, the solution to the issue is quite straightforward: first, stop the ugly mentality of environmental pollution; second, stop the pollution itself on the physical level by adopting appropriate measures; andthird,cleanthealreadypollutedfreshwaterresources in a more technologically advanced manner. Based on these findings, we can say that it is a creative way of reducingmanualstressandtherebyextremelydependably sustainingtheinthepond.Theprojectwecompleted was impressive in terms of environmental goals and is
