The initiative will provide the foundations for the establishment of an Australian Research Network in Analytical Science (ARNAS), which will bring together fundamental researchers and practitioners working in quantitative chemical analysis and related areas. ARNAS will provide national coordination of research in analytical science, coverage of the newest developments, pooling of expertise and research facilities and resources, and rapid dissemination of outcomes. ARNAS will significantly advance the national research agenda for analytical science by improving awareness of research activities and expertise, providing enhanced education and opportunities for the next generation of analytical scientists, and by stimulating new international collaborations.Read moreRead less
Automated Sensors for a ‘wetland in a box’. Globally, and particularly in Australia, water supply and water pollution is one of the most critical constraints to our health and growth. This project seeks to validate a new portable remediation system suitable for deployment at regional locations through the integration and development of advanced sensors. We aim to develop the world’s first completely integrated platform for monitoring both water chemistry and microbiology to provide near-real-tim ....Automated Sensors for a ‘wetland in a box’. Globally, and particularly in Australia, water supply and water pollution is one of the most critical constraints to our health and growth. This project seeks to validate a new portable remediation system suitable for deployment at regional locations through the integration and development of advanced sensors. We aim to develop the world’s first completely integrated platform for monitoring both water chemistry and microbiology to provide near-real-time information regarding the quality of the remediated water. We expect this to improve the availability of regional water resources by providing a low-cost remediation solution with integrated monitoring to provide assurances of meeting the Australian Guidelines for Water Recycling (2006).Read moreRead less
