Fall 2014 Contributions

This semester I am continuing my research with the Chemical Dose Controller team. Our team goals for this semester include writing a detailed assembly manual for users, experimentation with the new single lever-arm, and coordinating a plan for shipping the CDC systems with AguaClara, LLC.

Spring 2014 Contributions

I am on the Chemical Dose Controller team this semester. So far this semester I have helped in the design of a new single lever-arm chemical dose controller which will be used in AguaClara plants in India. Additionally, I have done research into replacing all of the metal components in the float valve in the constant head tank in order to prevent chlorine corrosion.

Spring 2015 Contributions 

This semester I continued my work on the Chemical Dose Controller team. Throughout the semester I worked on redesigning the constant head tank to be chlorine resistant, assessed the feasibility of implementing a flexible drop-tube unit, and updated the set-up manual for the entire CDC system.

Spring 2017 Contributions

This semester I am working on the Chemical Dose Controller (CDC) team. My main task is to re-design the calibration column and associated tubing to make the system more compatible with a modular CDC system. So far this semester I have come up with two working designs for the modular calibration column system, and have begun the process of fabricating the system for testing in the lab.
