Team: Laminar Tube Flocculator

The Laminar Tube Flocculator group hopes that through our research with Aquaclara this Fall semester, we will be able to gain an understanding of what final dimensions of the flocculator will allow for both spectator visibility and the steady growth of flocs. We also hope to create a "control" laminar flocculator that we will be able to compare our results to so that we will be able to determine the most suitable dimensions for the water treatment plant. This semester we will also be researching ways to build more flocculators through different material and fabrication methods as well as adjusting the flocculator's lengths so that they will not be longer than necessary.
