Accomplishments
- Initial construction of experimental apparatus complete
- Flocculator coiled
- Sedimentation piece assembled
- Pumps connected
- Discussed wiki midterm report and overall direction of our team
Outcomes
- Leaks in apparatus fixed
- Continue to document experimental setup
Issues
- Need to obtain assistance to use Process Control
- Flow through pumps is not steady (maybe need to add buffers..)
- Pump does not seem to be pulling water through top tube settlers
- The water level in the bucket that provides flow into the flocculator is not maintaining an adequate water level. As a result, flow out of the bucket is not steady.
