Floc Size and Count App - Spring 2016

Christian Rodriguez, Anthony Verghese, Deniz Yilmazer

Abstract:

Turbidity measurements provide the primary source of performance monitoring at many water treatment plants. However, turbidity readings of floc suspensions do not provide any insight into the performance of subsequent treatment processes. The Floc Size and Count App team’s aim is to create and easy-to-use personal computer application that could measure floc size distribution using a digital camera with appropriate magnification. The app will be written in LabVIEW. The aim for this semester is to develop coding expertise in the LabVIEW environment and start working on the app that will be used in the AguaClara labs and eventually in AguaClara drinking water treatment plants.
