Abstract:
The Chemical Dose Controller (CDC) system was designed to maintain a constant chemical dose to the treatment train as the plant flow rate and influent turbidity change. This semester, the CDC team worked on expanding the modular design from previous semesters in order to improve ease-of-use during operation, better access to the system for plant operators, and greater system efficiency overall. The team designed and fabricated a new and improved constant head tank and calibration columns systems. This semester the CDC team also collaborated with the 1 L/s plant sub-team to create a CDC system for low flow rates.
