After the rejection of the three options listed above, we re-considered the use of a float value to monitor the surface level of the alum solution. This should make dosing less variable and may help find a better solution to the orifice problem. Originally, we eliminated this design because we did not want to include small, hard-to-fabricate components into the design. Yet, this seemed like the only potentially successful option at the time, and still currently. Also, we are looking into the addition of a flocculation component; yet, this can be thoroughly researched and considered more next semester.
Add more info. about new Point-of-Use Design Calculations and current final design of the point-of-use unit. Comment on how we omitted the alum doser and chlorine doser in the design (and how we will use "batch" system instead). Also, comment on why this schematic actually works: need 2-3 inches of water above foam based on graph in file.
