This semester I have been working on the Dissolved Air Floation of Flocs team, specifically the Aeration subteam. Currently, the bulk of my work involves experimenting with dissolved oxygen removal from super saturated water by increasing the gas transfer rate using air bubbles as a catalyst. The results from our experiments thus far have suggested that the aeration method may not be a suitable solution to the floating flocs problem. The data indicates that the , because the recorded change in dissolved oxygen of water that has been aerated and put under partial vacuum occurs too slowly for our purposes and is minimal at best and does not occur in an acceptable period of time. However, one of subteam's biggest concerns is that the data collected thus far may be inaccurate due to equipment problems. Because of this, we plan to continue to experiment with the aeration setup in order to confirm or reject our move away from the aeration method. As And as we collect new data, we will simultaneously be formulating other possible solutions to test experimentally.
