This semester I am continuing work on the 1 L/s plant as a member of the 1 L/s Plant Testing Team. We are currently working to finish the construction of the plant and will build the flocculators to test their effectiveness. Throughout the semester, I worked constantly on water testing the 1 L/s plant and its welding. I welded the supports onto the base plates and water tested the bottom half first with the team. Then once it was water tight, we welded the full sedimentation tank together and water tested. I initially worked with Juan to build the entrance tank and welded the sides together. Then I worked with Sidney in working on the LFOM and understanding the calculations that went into it with Monroe.
I cut the spacers for the tapered flocculation system and helped assemble some of the baffle rods with "tacos."
