Abstract:
Since January 2016, the Pre-Fabrication team has been experimenting with the creation of a 1 L/s water treatment plant. The Spring 2016 team successfully created a small scale version of the sedimentation tank and the Summer 2016 team fabricated a full scale plant. This full-scale plant will be shipped to Honduras in December 2016, and the goal of the Fall 2016 team is to construct an additional 1 L/s plant with a focus on streamlining and improving the production methods and accuracy. The team will focus most heavily on improving the methods of the flocculator and determining the structural integrity of the plant to confirm the validity of its design approach.
