- Obtained a webcam from Cameron
- Set up the webcam with Paul's help.
- Revised Research Proposal and Detailed Task List
- Finished Midterm Wiki
- Began performing literature searches related to the 3 sets of experiments to be performed
- Hopefully, obtained Obtained clamps and fixed the leaks in the system
- Measured dissolved oxygen concentration at various points in the system.
Issues
- Fix the clogging problem in the sand filter
- Dissolved oxygen concentration increases from one point in the system to the next, instead of decreasing. This means that the sand filter is not working properly, and the bubble collector may not be, either.
- The aerator is very inefficient. Dissolved oxygen concentration in the water is about 60% of its maximum.
Goals for upcoming week
- Start experiments
- Collect good data
