Abstract


The High Flow Dose Controller aims to provide a simple dose controller for AguaClara plants that requires minimal input and oversight from the plant operator.  In keeping with AguaClara standards, this dose controller will not require the use of electricity, will be simple to understand and operate and will be constructed from robust components.  The High Flow Dose Controller will be designed for use with flow rates where the Liner Dose Controller is unable to meet flow demands.

Introduction

One of the biggest hurdles in the development of AguaClara technology has been the development of a method to administer process chemicals that is both accurate and simple to operate. 

...

The High Flow Dose Controller (HFDC) will investigate a new approach to metering process chemicals through a needle valve, thereby providing a variable orifice for dose control.  A new method to couple the entrance tank to the plant will be developed.
