South East Water has developed a vibration sensor device named Sotto to detect leaks within its network in order to reduce wastage…
This project will conduct a critical review of scalable algal control methods within wastewater lagoons, drinking water reservoirs, and constructed water bodies…
This research will investigate combining prediction and optimisation (predict-plus-optimise) to better manage peak sewage flows…
Gases are often dissolved into water in water and wastewater treatment processes, however, it is known that poor oxygen transfer efficiency in these processes can lead to excessive amounts of air required – leading to either increased operational costs or necessary over-sizing of capital plant, or poor process performance…
Water Research Australia contracted the University of Newcastle to undertake a scientific review of the Draft NEMP3…
Conventional media filtration is the most common process used as one of the main barriers for pathogen and solids removal in water treatment…
Algal and cyanobacterial blooms incur current treatment challenges such as high operational cost, disinfectant by-product formation, and the requirement to separate oxidants from solution after the oxidation…
By dewatering sludge, wastes can be efficiently and reliably concentrated into filter cakes with high solids for cost-effective disposal…
The sustainable application of biosolids to agricultural land is being limited by many contaminants such as microbial pathogens, PFAS, microplastics, and heavy metals…
