The next tasks were a series of experiments carried on the column-based model of a lime feeder.
Experiment 1

Experiment 2

Experiment 3: Addition of sloping glass column above the lime feeder and Tube-length Calculations

 

FUTURE TASKS

  • Run several trials with the new design to determine the amount of lime required to maintain a pH of 12 for 24 hours. In addition the performance of the new design will be evaluated and revised, if necessary.
  • Simulate Honduran water conditions. Once the lime feeder design is working successfully with distilled water, a new experiment will be required to analyze the performance with a lower pH concentration.
  • Recalculate design dimensions while taking into account the natural variation of flow rate at the inlet tank in the water treatment plant.
