Summer Summer 2012 Contributions
During the Summer of 2012, I worked on the Foam Filtration team. As a member of this team, I modified the original prototype, increasing filter column length to accomodate high head loss, adding valves to the bottom of the filter columns to facilitate the draining of wastewater while cleaning, and adding pressure sensors to record head loss accumulation. We tested the filter's ability to achieve effluent turbidity at or below the EPA standard .3 NTU, using influent turbidities ranging from 100 to 1000 NTU. Using lab turbidimeters, we recorded effluent turbidity at roughly .01 - .02 NTU, also documenting pC*, head loss, and run time.
