Fall 2013 Contributions

• As a part of the Low Flow Stacked Rapid Sand Filtration team, I will work to develop simplified hydraulic controls, a new method of drain closure, and a fluidization initiator for the LFSRSF.

Spring 2013 Contributions

• As a part of the Small Scale Plant Model team, I contributed to the construction of a portable, scaled model of an AguaClara plant that will clearly represent AguaClara treatment processes and can be used for educational and fundraising purposes. I was responsible for the creation of the majority of our team's Rhinoceros templates representing flattened plant components. I contributed to the later optimization of these templates, and I compiled three-dimensional composite shots of our model's components in order to facilitate future construction. I also assembled our model flocculator, filter, and filter inlet, and worked to cut out our model entrance tank from chipboard.
