Human & Environmental Health Impacts

Exposure assessment using tracer chemicals – Stage 1

There are concerns that recycled wastewater used for watering gardens or washing cars might be accidently ingested…

Circular Economy

Treating wastewater for potable reuse: removal of chemicals of concern using advanced oxidation processes

Recycling wastewater by using reverse osmosis (RO) and ultrafiltration appears to be associated with the formation of some groups of micropollutants but there is not much information about these processes…

Human & Environmental Health Impacts

Ecotoxicity toolbox to evaluate water quality for recycling

Wastewater must be treated to remove harmful pathogens and chemicals before it can be released to the environment, but the cost of proving that all pollutants have been removed is prohibitive because potentially thousands of separate chemicals would have to be measured…

Human & Environmental Health Impacts

A national approach to risk assessment, risk communication and management of chemical hazards from recycled water

Wastewater (WW) contains harmful chemicals, including pesticides, that can disrupt normal gene function or hormone activity…

Networks & Treatment

Nitrosamines, including N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), and other nitrogenous disinfection by-products in Australian drinking waters

Components of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) in source waters can react with disinfecting chlorine or chloramine to form nitrogenous disinfection byproducts (n-DBPs) which might be toxic and hazardous to health…

Networks & Treatment

Scale formation and prevention in small water supplies reliant on groundwater

Some remote and regional areas of Australia rely on groundwater…

Networks & Treatment

Novel treatment methods for reduction of bromide and iodide in drinking water sources

Water is disinfected to remove harmful microbes and pathogens such as cholera and typhoid…

Networks & Treatment

Identification and prevention of chemical contamination causing taint and odour in water from coal tar enamel lined pipes

This project developed analytical methods sensitive enough to detect the very low levels of compounds that leach out of old coal tar enamel-lined pipes, then catalogued the chemicals and the levels they were found at in a problematic pipeline…
