Ecuador Pilot Plant
The Ecuador pilot plant has been designed at the request of a University Professor in Ecuador. The plant will be used mainly to demonstrate the AguaClara technology as feasible water treatment technology to communities in the area.
Design Overview
The plant is designed for a flow rate of 3L/s. The plant has 3 floc channels, 2 sedimentation tanks, and has an area of 10.5 cubic meters.

Design Assumptions
Despite the low flow rate, the plant was designed to have 2 sedimentation
tanks to allow for experimentation. The width of the sed tank was set to be 92 cm, based on material specifications that were given. Other design assumptions match those of previous plants.
