Fluorescence & Water Recyling
Scholarship Description
Two PhD scholarships are available via an ARC Linkage grant (2007-2010) on the investigation of the suitability and development of fluorescence analysis as a tool for recycled water risk management. It is hypothesised that fluorescence analysis has the strong potential to provide sensitive detection of failures in recycled water treatment and distribution systems. The project will be undertaken in the Centre for Water and Waste Technology within the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering at UNSW. Specific intended outcomes of this research include techniques for online monitoring for underperformance of treatment processes such as reverse osmosis; and for identification of cross-connections between potable and recycled water supplies. This will have significant implications in terms of public health, environmental protection and public confidence in the integrity of recycled water practices.
