Abstract
After experimenting with several papers that had different properties, we zeroed on a handmade coarse paper with a thickness of 300 GSM that demonstrated absorbing capabilities of the filter card. This paper was cut and fashioned to the size and shape of the filter card that was used as the template. The paper we used was only half the thickness of the filter card and hence a wide strip was folded to double the thickness. Holes were punched in the prepared filter strips to match the filter card template [Figure 1a].
