This spring we will be working on the pore size of the foam filter, trying to get more understanding on what determines the efficiency of the system. We first want to see what the influence of adding a flocculator before our foam filter on the final efficiency. Our foam filter will be decoupled (one filter for the coarse pores and one for the fine pores) in order to get values of turbidity after each filter. Right now i am working on designing this system. We will then define an influent having specific clay, humic acid and coagulant concentrations matching as closely as possible the influent in Honduras. This "cocktail" will be run through our newly designed system and purified.
