This project addresses an existing issue in the water filtration industry regarding the installation of tube settlers in sedimentation basins. The tube settlers are commonly used during the purification process. However, the short-circuiting of, and the necessity to support, tube settlers has led to the creation of a complicated support frames system and distributor-collector infrastructure. This project was performed as a proof of concept proposed by Roberts Water Technologies to combine influent distributors and effluent collectors with a support frame for tube settles. The concept should end up as a cost-effective and easy-to-install alternative to existing tube settler structures. The model was designed and developed with the principles of water filtration flow and structural analysis. Manufacturing options were evaluated and successfully implemented into the fabrication of the final model. Vishay Micro-Measurement rosette-type gauges and indicators were used to conduct the tests. Visual observation of the model under static load conditions was performed as well. The results of the project proved the model is able to carry the expected loads, and to have the required flow during operation stage. It is also an easy-to-install, light-weight system. Additional hydraulic calculations or tests would be beneficial for further development of the prototype.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Walter Schroeder Library Master's Theses AC805 .I54 2008 Available Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
