Spring 2009 Minutes
April 10, 2009
Working Group: 1
Accomplishments
- Set Process Controller to dose for PAC
- Set pump to turbidimeters to produce a tube settler capture velocity of 10 m/day
- Began dosing PAC!
Outcomes
- Plant is ready for testing different configurations with PAC as coagulant. Need to fix peristaltic pump however before we can obtain data.
Issues
- Want to dilute PAC so peristaltic pump isn't pumping at non-optimal (low rpm) rates.
- Problems with peristaltic pump
- Leaky tube settlers
