Welcome to
theAguaClara
Research Wiki! AguaClara is
an Engineering Project Teama research organization at Cornell University
dedicated to creating high-reliability, low-cost solutions to global water problems. This site contains documentation for all of our past & present research activities, as well as our goals for the future. The new AguaClara home page lives at aguaclara.cornell.edu - pay it a visit to learn more about the project. Up-to-date news is available on Twitter or on our Blog.

that designs sustainable, electricity-free water treatment. This technology is then implemented in Honduras and India in a partnership with Agua Para el Pueblo and AguaClara LLC. All of AguaClara's research is open-source so please look through this wiki page or visit our website aguaclara.cornell.edu to learn more!
AguaClara at Cornell
AguaClara at Cornell is a center for Research and Design of sustainable engineered processes to provide clean drinking water for communities everywhere. As opposed to point of use devices that provide water to individuals, AguaClara systems provide drinking water at the municipal scale. Cornell student research teams focus on Researching, Inventing, and Designing using state of the art process control to automate parametric testing. Experimental automation makes it possible to explore a wider parameter space per unit time, allowing student teams to thoroughly test their ideas and to quickly adapt their hypotheses to respond to new results. The research teams generate new knowledge that is used to improve AguaClara designs and create new treatment processes. An important incentive to students in AguaClara research teams is that they get to see the results of their work built and used to benefit people.
