  2. Introduction Group Members � Devlin Hayduke, ME Project Manager � Rashed Al-Mehthel, ME � Alec Barclay, ME � Mark Blomer, ME � Luke Walsh, ME � Jackie Matejcik, EE � Sponsor: Andrew Moore, Dean RIT College of � Liberal Arts Mentor: Dr. Nye �

  3. Outline � Background Information � Design Process � Final Concept � Cost Analysis

  4. Background Information What is the Device used for? Aid Dean Moore � Retrieve carbonized � seeds and artifacts from soil Reason : Understand � the history of farming Danilo Where: Danilo, Croatia � Dalmatian Coast of � Adriatic Coast Key Words �

  5. Design Process Recognize and Quantify needs � Concept Development � Feasibility Assessment � Design of Objectives and Performance � Specifications Design Analysis and Synthesis �

  6. Critical Performance Parameters Separate and retrieve carbonized seeds � Gentle process to protect artifacts � Be safe to use carbon dating after retrieval � Rugged, all-weather device � Process the clay-based soil at the Croatian site � Compact and easily transportable � Safe, controlled system �

  7. Concept Development Froth Floatation � Density Separation � Vibration Separation �

  8. Froth Floatation Bubbler/Compressor � Overflow � Containers � Raw Soil Compressed Water Tank � Air Settling Tank � Water Tank Water Flow Sieves � Collection of Seeds � Sieve Dirty Water Sludge Artifact Collection � Process Clean Water � Settling Tank Seeds Cost � Sludge Evaluation �

  9. Density Separation Pumps � Centrifuge � Water � Tanks � Input � Clean water � Sieves � Process � Cost � Evaluation �

  10. Vibration Separation Vibration Motor � Gratings � Coarse � Medium � Fine � Sieves � Seeds Collection � Pump � Process � Cost � Evaluation �

  11. Concept Evaluations Concepts Used � Froth Flotation � Gratings � Water Recycling � Concepts Removed � Vibration Gratings � Centrifuge Pump �

  12. Design Objectives and Performance Specifications 50% Charred Seed Retrieval � 90% of Artifacts Retrieved Continuously � 95% Water Retention per 10L of Soil � Sample Process a 10L Soil Sample in 8 Minutes �

  13. Safety Concerns Electrical Components � Enclosed Connections � Outdoor use wires � Water tight enclosure for: � Power Supply � Circuit board � Power Supply Cooling Fan � Manual Shutdown Switches � Operator Slippage �

  14. Final Concept Tanks � Break-Up � Froth � Pumps � Water � Sump � Sensors � Level � Valves � Release � Flow �
