Floc Hopper Group
Accomplishments
- A summary of major work completed since last meeting based on last meeting's identified outcomes/issues
Issues
- Difficult and unresolved issues
- Plans for action
- Finished writing the MtoA code that will create the floc hopper for the plant.
- Updated the wiki page to include pictures of the floc hopper and its dimensions.
- Updated files in the Final Design folder (floc hopper - new design, floc hopper - old design, and replaced a link in the Master Program to call our new floc hopper file)
Issues
- Need to change the origin of our floc hopper in the code so that it will be placed correctly within the plant.
Goals for upcoming week
- Will work on placing the floc hopper in the correct position in the plant, as well as testing the floc hopper with various plant sizes.

Floc Tank Group
Accomplishments
- Number of baffles in the last channel is now even
- Designed prototype for flocculator drainage system that requires no valves and drew in AutoCAD
Issues
- Subtracting a single baffle seems to have added more channels for smaller plant flow rates than anticipated
- The ports between the channels take up the entire height of the tank for certain flow rates
...
- Compare and understand the effect of removing a single baffle in the last channel to the original design
- Ensure that the baffle spacing is no smaller than the width of the ports
- Draw slots to slide the baffles into
...
- Send drainage design to engineers in Honduras to review
