I need to design and make a water purification system powered by solar energy using household materials. I'm really not sure how to go about this and any help or advice is greatly appreciated.
Over in Africa they are using plastic bottles laid out in the sun for a few days to purify water. It's low tech but it works. You can read about it in the article below. And it can be done with simple household items.

I wish i could help you, but i guess this type of problems is found intensively in machine design books. You may read the solved examples on the relevant chapter (as i usually do) then you'll find everything a piece of cake !

We bought solar lights for the front garden and have started to use them around the inside of the house.How would you devise a system that used an outside source that could use these lamps inside coming from the one outside solar source.I don`t...
The panels in garden lights are only good for powering 1 LED and not all that brightly either. So I suppose you could get the panels from a dozen lights, put them together in 1 largish panel that could go outside and run a cable through to a few...
i am very strong on recycling and renewable energy. I hate the thought of throwing "rubbish" away without doing something to help the environment.
For example at work i try and encourage staff to recycle receipts.
But very few
That is the big question. How do you make people care? If it was that easy, we wouldn't be in the mess we are in now.

Real Goods Solar, Inc. (Real Goods) is a residential and commercial solar energy integrator. The Company offer turnkey services, including design, procurement, permitting, build-out, grid connection, financing referrals and warranty. Its solar energy systems use solar photovoltaic (PV) modules from manufacturers, such as Kyocera, Sharp, SunTech and SunPower. It installs residential and commercial systems that are generally between 3 kilowatts and 500 kilowatts output, with the average residential installation being approximately five kilowatts output. The Company also on occasions install larger commercial projects of up to three megawatts output. In December 2011, the Company and Earth Friendly Energy Group Holdings, LLC, doing business as Alteris Renewables, Inc., announced that they had completed merger.
Where is Solar Energy Heading?
There are many who are for solar energy. However, solar power hasn’t been very cost effective for the recent decade. Now, innovative technology is bringing the price of solar energy down to competitive levels. It is leveling to other alternative sources of energy.
It is interesting to consider the idea of generating an unlimited and pollution-free power from the sun. However, decrease in the price of oil is staggering the progress of solar energy in countries such as the United States. Recently, solar energy costs around 25 to 50 cents per kilowatt-hour, which is estimated to be about 5 to 8 times more expensive than fossil fuel.
