Summer 2013
Tasks for this summer involve finding the parameters at which the subsurface injection filter becomes clogged. Using the experimental apparatus built last semester, the team will continue research comparing the surface and subsurface sand filters. The team will run experiments and change the influent turbidity, influent velocity, and coagulant dosage. Effects on head loss and effluent turbidity will be observed and analyzed.
