Fall 2016
The Sensor Development Team is a new team for the Fall 2016 semester. The team was created in response to the needs of the UASB and AFB teams. The primary goals of this team were to develop a gas measurement sensor that can be used in AguaClara wastewater subteams, as well as design and build a fluidized bed solids concentrator sensor that can be used by other AguaClara subteams. This semester, we finalized a method of gas measurement, programmed settings in PoCoDa to automate the systems, and built the next generation of the measurement system. For the fluidized bed solids concentrator sensor, we built and calibrated a sensor that detects LED light shining through a clear PVC pipe containing granules to output granule concentrations in ProCoDa for the AFB team. This sensor can be modified for other subteams, as needed.
