This fall I was a member of the prefab 1 L/s subteam. We were tasked with constructing a new 1 L/s plant and to streamline the fabrication process as a whole. I was a primary actor in preparing the sedimentation tank and the fabrication of the base plates for the plant. For the base plates, I helped figure out the correct geometry and create a pattern to expedite the creation of future base plates. I have also gotten the sedimentation tank cut to the correct specifications. I plan on staying for the 16' winter break to complete the build of the plant as well.
Spring 2016
This semester I am continuing work on As a member of the 1L/s plant as a member of the 1L/s testing subteam with the task to finish construction of the plant and flocculator and to test the effectiveness of each. testing team I made contributions to complete the construction of the second 1 L/s plant and take steps for testing in the future. This included finishing construction of the sedimentation tank, redesigning the entrance tank and LFOM, as well as redesigning the flocculator and orifice flocculation system. Our team was also in charge of starting explorations into tapered a flocculation system to address issues found when testing the plant in the field. The plant should be ready for full testing in the fall.
