My contributions this semester were both hands-on and managerial. I assisted with the design of the manifolds, the head loss calculations through the small-scale filter to determine adequate sizes of piping, and the construction and testing of the small-scale filter. Additionally, I kept communication flowing within the group and other parties, including EPA, team leaders, and our lead mechanic. I was also in charge of ordering materials for the small-scale filter. The filter at the competition worked very well. There were many people interested in the concept of the LFSRSF.
