Youth- Green Development of an automated colorimetric sensor for monitoring ammonium in water

FY 2018-19 · 2019-02-01

Summary
A sensor previously developed for automated detection of disinfection by-products in drinking water will be upgraded, modified, and validated for use in monitoring dissolved ammonium in municipal and industrial wastewater, as well as source water. This work will require extensive redesign of the reaction sequence and mechanical control scheme, as well as programming of a user interface for calibration, automation, manual control, and historical data retrieval.

Description (French)
Un capteur précédemment développé pour la détection automatisée des sous-produits de désinfection dans l'eau potable sera mis à niveau, modifié et validé pour la surveillance de l'ammonium dissous dans les eaux usées municipales et industrielles, ainsi que dans les eaux de source. Ce travail nécessitera une reconception approfondie de la séquence de réaction et du schéma de commande mécanique, ainsi que la programmation d'une interface utilisateur pour la calibration, l'automatisation, le contrôle manuel et la récupération des données historiques.
