Purification System design
After several iterations we found our most recent version of the design to be the most functional . The initial complications that arose when trying to design a proper mechanism was the necessity to have an isolated system. We have two bodies of water that cannot interact but at the same time the sound waves need to be able to flow between the two. This is done through a membrane in the test tube. The initial design was to have a catching system where the transducer was floating at the appropriate level.
The initial concerns that were given about this design was the cross contamination between the pure and dirty water. The second iteration was born from this train of thought. We birthed the concept of having an isolated tube that would have an inflow and outflow section(appendix). The initial thought process would have the transducer locked and sealed in the lower container. This was dismissed for our testing design because we needed to have access to the valves to control the inflow and outflow of water. This is why we created the cross that holds the tube up.
