SewAus Sampling
Date: 29-Jun-2017
Flyer.....The University of Queensland and partner universities in other Australian states are conducting a project: Sew Aus which estimates per capita use and release of chemicals by wastewater analysis. The aim of SewAus is to measure the (licit and illicit) use of and exposure to chemicals across the Australian population and the release of chemicals from WWTPs into the environment.
The sampling is planned for a week to include Census day (9 August) at STPs across Australia. All service providers involved in the project will be de-identified to maintain STP confidentiality, but can access the results from their plants.
For more information, contact Sharon Grant 0488 238 017 or Jake O’Brien 0410 717 769 at Entox at the University of Queensland. More information is also available on the flyer available here.
