6A:Survival Kit


We had been asked to design a survival kit and need to bring it to go on to the IBU.
The inventions i used to design my survival kit are:
A) A innovative Agro-Based Ingredient: Pumpkin Flour as a New Generation Source of Fibre and Natural Colourant In Bakery Product,Bread.-2007
B)Intelligent Air Pollution Warning System-2006
C)Ultraviolet radiation-2005
D) Fire Buster- A Novel Automatic Fire Detection System-2007
E)Air injection nozzle for solid-liquid separation using dissolved air flotation process-2006

Dissolved air flotation(DAF)
DAF is used to separate solid from the body of liquid for water and waste water clarification.It could treat more water as compared to conventional sedimentation.Dissolved air flotation is generally considered more effective than sedimentation in the treatment of alga rich water.
However, the type and dose of coagulate as well as DAF operating condition is a key to remove cyanobacterial cells.
taken from www.google.com

For your information, this cells is identitied worldwide,posing a significant risk to water supplies. Toxins can occur within the cells or be released from cells into the water.
DAF is used for portable water treatment, remove the particles in the raw water so that the turbidity can be reduced to an acceptable limit for drinking purpose.
DAF is a process for separating and removing suspended solids from liquid bases on changes in the solubility of gas as pressure varies.
The air pressure is released and combined with the liquid which becomes super satured with micron-sized air bulles. As the suspended materials attach to the micron-sized air bubbles, it will produce a lower specific gravity for the agglomerate to less than that of water, and float on the surface, forming a layer of sludge, is then removed by skimmers.Heavy solids settle to the bottom of the tank and to be removed.



Pumpkin Flour
Well, pumpkin flour is a good source of dietary fibres, resistant starch and natural colourant.
Advantage of using pumpkin flour as compared to normal flour is that it has a longer shelf life.
Bread made from this flour provides protein,starch and fibres.It also contain carotenoids which playing the same role as pro vitamin A and act as antioxidant. It may reduce the risk of developing certain type of cancer and reduce blood glucose level.Starch inside the bread,after the digestion in our stomach, enzymes will convert the starch into different types of glucose which will be absorbed by our bodies to provide enough energy to perform daily activites.
Inside my survival kit, it has machines to carry on slicing, drying process..etc..


Fire Buster
Fire buster is an automatic fire detection system intergrated into surveillance camera system. It can analyse images ,that enables detection of a developing fire within short time, immediate alert the building's occupants for emergency evacuation, helping to ensure safety and minimize the loss of the properties.

Detection of UV- Radiation
The detector is used to measure the radiation reaching to earth surface. Morever, it also provide datas and informations on the radiation level and also provide feedback on harmful effects of uv radiation.When the level is high, IBU can immediately inform the pondoks so that all the people will protect themselves from exposed to the UV ray.

Intelligent Air pollution warning system
It is used to detect particulates air pollution in the environment and the classifies it within minutes.It also help to ensure the continuing safety of environmental air for living creature.
This system is needed because air pollution is deteriorating, the quality of air is getting worse.
This system can help to alert other pondok to prevent long exposure to the polluted air.


This three systems are connected to the computer by using Bluetooth.

My progression:



This is the design of my survival kit

This shows that how my survival kit works
