Who is Gray™?
Who is Gray™? Gray is a relatively small collection of students (three, to be exact) that was given the opportunity to create something that would help make a difference. So, we got to work, first creating individual designs and then grouping up with other students with similar ideas and concepts. Then we integrated our ideas and developed one final concept. Now we have entered the prototyping stage.
Why Gray™?
Why Gray™? Gray is the point in between white and black. In between dark and light. Bad and good. Gray is the colour of improvement, and that is our aim. To improve, to lighten a dark situation. No problem is going to be solved overnight. For right now, we’re just lending a helping hand. We’re just the stepping stone towards purity.
What are we making?
What are we making? The idea is simple. Create a machine that produces clean drinking water while simultaneously providing water to crop type plants. We have gone through several designs of this concept, but we finally settled on a horizontal hydroponics design. To put it in the simplest terms, you put water into a “dirty” tank which provides the water the plants need to grow. This helps to act as a “pre-filter” for a device attached at the bottom (a reverse osmosis filter). The water is collected in a “trough” at the bottom, and pumped through the RO filter. The water is deposited into a “waiting” tank which automatically drains the water into a “drinking” tank. Once the drinking tank is full, the rest of the water goes back through the system. It’s literally as simple as “just add water!*”
