Work throughout the rest of the fall 2009 semester will focus on finalizing the Agalteca plant rapid mix tube design. The rapid mix subteam will also build a full-scale model of the system in order to test the feasibility of the system as well as create a prototype tube on which to base future improvements to the tube. Experiments will also be carried out to test the flow of water through the system as well as the effectiveness of the orifices in creating rapid mix of chemical introduced to the water source flowing through the tube system.
