I began research with Aguaclara in Summer 2011 with the Sedimentation Hydraulics Team. We improved the bottom geometry by representing the full tank bottom with two symmetrical trenches rather than just half of the tank, created a narrower trench, a semicircular trench, and began research on the floc weir and floc hopper. I contributed to the Summer '11 Teach-in, Final Presentation, and Final Report.
I will continue research with the Sedimentation Tank Hydraulics team this semester, working to create the optimal bottom geometry for the sedimentation tank and continuing to create and improve the floc weir.
