Abstract

Improving pond water quality is a significant challenge for the residents of Gledeg Village, often due to sediment, algae, and organic waste contamination. This study aimed to design and implement a simple water filter capable of efficiently clarifying pond water. The method involved site surveys, pond selection, tool design, construction, and testing of a filter utilizing materials such as zeolite, activated carbon, silica sand, and sponge filters. Results demonstrated the filter's ability to enhance water clarity, eliminate odors, and provide a stable water flow. The system was well-received by the community, offering practical applications for irrigation and fish farming. With its affordability and accessible materials, this simple water filter serves as a sustainable solution to optimize pond water reuse while maintaining local ecosystem balance
