During January 2017, a proposal for a novel UASB reactor was submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency P3 competition. This novel UASB reactor would be prefabricated, operated electricity-free, and affordable for small communities in the global south. Two innovative components of this UASB reactor is the submerged lid and plate settlers. The Spring 2017 UASB team tested the efficiency of these two elements and found that the submerged lid has the capacity to be gas-tight and therefore should be part of the UASB reactor. However, the results of the plate settler tests were inconclusive and the test should be repeated to determine if plate settlers improve solids (granule) retention.
