Abstract: The present invention relates to an eco-friendly reusable water bottle incorporating an integrated water purification system designed to provide safe drinking water on demand. The bottle is constructed from sustainable, BPA-free materials and is intended to reduce dependence on singleuse plastic bottles while ensuring water quality. The purification mechanism is housed within the bottle cap and utilizes ultraviolet (UV-C) light technology to neutralize bacteria, viruses, and other harmful microorganisms present in water. The system is powered by a compact rechargeable battery, which may be charged through a USB interface or a small solar-assisted charging module. The purification process is activated by a single-button control and operates automatically for a predefined cycle to ensure effective disinfection. Visual indicators such as LED signals inform the user of purification status, battery level, and completion of the cycle. The bottle is designed for portability, making it suitable for outdoor activities, travel, emergency situations, and daily personal use. The integrated system eliminates the need for chemical additives or replaceable filters, thereby minimizing maintenance and environmental impact. The invention promotes sustainability, user convenience, and health safety by combining water storage and purification into a single compact unit. This invention provides a practical solution for accessing clean drinking water in locations where water quality is uncertain, while supporting eco-friendly practices through reusable design and energy-efficient operation.
