Designing the Cyclos motor

In the class Product Engineering Process, 2.009, a team of students designed an affordable system, Cyclos, that extracts oil from filters so they can be safely recycled. Cyclos is targeted to the small auto shops that often throw away their filters – leading to serious water contamination around the landfills. Pictured are Dave Foster ’08 and Kimberlee Collins ’08 at work on the Cyclos motor.
