Rapid Mix Contact Chamber (RMCC)

Spring 2016
The Rapid Mix Contact Chamber team worked to build a contact chamber that allowed for the rapid mixing of raw water and coagulant, improving upon the existing Rapid Mix Tube by providing a larger volume for mixing to take place. The goal of the team was to determine the shape of the contact chamber that would result in the least coagulant loss and to determine the residence time needed to maximize mixing but minimize coagulant loss. The team used mass balance to determine the loss of coagulant to the flocculator walls and used pigging to clean the flocculator in between trials.
