Sedimentation
Accomplishments
- Read the wiki to get a better grasp of the project
- Prepared for the teach-in for Tuesday
- Went to the plant (9/25) to discuss potential solutions to the leakage in the upflow bucket
- Obtained 0.5" diameter caps for the lamella rods and the materials to seal the pipe to the sed tanks
Outcomes
- Still unable to operate the plant due to leakage in the bucket that controls upflow velocity
- Tom suggested replacing bucket with 12" diameter PVC pipe to prevent leaking
- Will concentrate on wiki organization until plant is running again
Metrics
