Subteam: EStaRS
Fall 2015 Goals
This semester's goals are to revise lab set-up, lab scale fixing to prevent leakage, and initial testing of new inlet system. Also, testing will be ongoing to ensure the filter runs at the design flow rate and outputs influent water at low turbidity.
Spring 2015 Contributions
While on the EStaRS system, I was working to solve conflicts associated with the cap blowing off during backwash, understand/use manometers to measure backwash efficiency, and to fabricate a new filter inlet design with orifices instead of slotted pipes.
