Pilot Plant Tapered Flocculator Meeting Minutes
Fall 2008 Minutes
September 25, 2008
Accomplishments
- Attempted to run tube flocculator by siphoning water out with a vacuum pump
- Met with Alissa to discuss wiki organization
- Met with Ian to discuss tube flocculator configuration and method to measure turbidity/ settling velocity after flocculation
- Worked on teach- in presentation and wiki page
Outcomes
- After discussion with Ian, team will possibly use FReTA at the WFP
Issues
- not enough pressure from vacuum pump to run tube flocculator
- soft tubing pinches
- air bubbles stuck in tube flocculator, possibly gassing out from raw water
- pilot plant system cannot be run until sed tanks are sealed or blocked off
