Prototype 2 Construction Progress - Piping's Up on 6 October 2010 (Wednesday)






A picture speaks a thousand words; click on image to enlarge.

In summary, the main piping and valve connections are up, less the sight glass as we were short of a 1" x 1/2" Reducer Bushing. The workers used metal and I explained to them that metal can't be used - detrimental to methanogens etc. Hence, I will need to do more purchasing tomorrow. Due to the lack of manpower, me and marcus will work on 2 separate sites:



Kian How - Tuas:
  • Buy 1" x 1/2" PLASTIC Reducer Bushing x1
  • Buy 1" threaded sch 80 End Cap x3
  • Buy 2" threaded sch 80 End Cap x1
  • Buy 2" Hose Ring x1
  • Drill holes on base - to prevent rain water accumulation
  • Supervise construction of bushing for gas sampling port
  • Call Ai Ling (Auric) for Detailed Gas-D Sampling Probe Dimensions

Marcus - SVF:
  • Meet Vacuum Truck at 10.30am
  • Run Orange Digestor
  • Draw out a table of data to record (Temp, pH, age of input waste, etc)
  • Follow up on Totalizer


Auric Gas Detector Sampling Probe - KH to call Auric for dimensions to construct sampling port:

  1. Hi Guys,
    You all should really get the ABE students involved in all these testing. It should be interesting for them to know. Call Aswin.
