By the end of this project, we hope to fix any possible errors missed in the past and obtain enough information to aid in the improvement of the AguaClara Water Treatment plant.
During fall 2009, two challenges were tested with the completion of one. For the first challenge, the study of the effect of shear rate on tube flocculator performance, our goal was to replicate an experiment from spring 2009 for the team to familiarize itself to the experimental apparatus and analysis techniques. Though this challenge did not provide new data, it showed the overall functions of the tube floc experimental setup and the computer programs used for data analysis.
