The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) invites you to participate in a short survey about your
interaction with the ARDC and use of our national research infrastructure and services. The survey will take
approximately 5 minutes and is anonymous. It’s open to anyone who uses our digital research infrastructure
services including Reasearch Link Australia.
We will use the information you provide to improve the national research infrastructure and services we
deliver and to report on user satisfaction to the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research
Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) program.
Please take a few minutes to provide your input. The survey closes COB Friday 29 May 2026.

Summary
Reinventing compostable packaging. This project aims to develop a new generation of authentically home-compostable packaging materials, focused around meeting immediate and future needs for food packaging. The materials used will be of sustainable origin, helping to decarbonise our packaging industry, and presenting a new paradigm in protecting consumer goods in a more responsible way. In doing so, it is anticipated that Australia will be able to reduce and eventually avoid reliance on single-us ....Reinventing compostable packaging. This project aims to develop a new generation of authentically home-compostable packaging materials, focused around meeting immediate and future needs for food packaging. The materials used will be of sustainable origin, helping to decarbonise our packaging industry, and presenting a new paradigm in protecting consumer goods in a more responsible way. In doing so, it is anticipated that Australia will be able to reduce and eventually avoid reliance on single-use plastic packaging in foods and the environmental problems it causes, without compromising on food safety or freshness.Read moreRead less

Summary
Large scale urban stormwater reuse: safe, clear and odourless water supply. This project aims to improve the resilience of Australian water supplies by building capacity in urban stormwater reuse. The project expects to address an industry-identified need to determine the suitability of urban lakes and wetlands for stormwater harvesting and develop chemical-sensory monitoring techniques to assess the quality of harvested water. Expected outcomes include the establishment of satellite-based remot ....Large scale urban stormwater reuse: safe, clear and odourless water supply. This project aims to improve the resilience of Australian water supplies by building capacity in urban stormwater reuse. The project expects to address an industry-identified need to determine the suitability of urban lakes and wetlands for stormwater harvesting and develop chemical-sensory monitoring techniques to assess the quality of harvested water. Expected outcomes include the establishment of satellite-based remote sensing as a key technology for stormwater applications and the widespread use of improved techniques for monitoring odorants by the water industry. This should provide significant benefits by informing adaptive planning and infrastructure readiness at water utilities and guiding Australian policy on stormwater reuse.Read moreRead less

Summary
Scalable semiconductor quantum processor with flip chip bonding technology. Australia is famous for quantum computing research based on electron spin in silicon quantum dot. This project aims to enable the manufacturing of such scalable quantum processor. Currently, superconducting quantum processor has reached >100 of qubits by the utilization of 3D integration fabrication technology such as flip chip bonding. Likewise, for semiconductor spin-qubit to grow, it is inevitable that novel 3D archit ....Scalable semiconductor quantum processor with flip chip bonding technology. Australia is famous for quantum computing research based on electron spin in silicon quantum dot. This project aims to enable the manufacturing of such scalable quantum processor. Currently, superconducting quantum processor has reached >100 of qubits by the utilization of 3D integration fabrication technology such as flip chip bonding. Likewise, for semiconductor spin-qubit to grow, it is inevitable that novel 3D architecture by expanding the building block to the next dimension must be explored to pave the way to scalable semiconductor quantum processor. This project will spearhead Australia's semiconductor quantum processor to the realm of hundreds of qubits and put this technology on par with superconducting quantum processor.Read moreRead less

Summary
Protecting aquifers in the race to net-zero carbon emissions. This project aims to address the key risk factor of gas leakage from carbon dioxide geological sequestration and hydrogen or compressed air renewable-energy storage. This project expects to develop innovative methods for monitoring gas leakage contamination into overlying Australian aquifer water resources. Expected outcomes of this project include a multidisciplinary method to detect leakages of CO2 and future stored-energy gases t ....Protecting aquifers in the race to net-zero carbon emissions. This project aims to address the key risk factor of gas leakage from carbon dioxide geological sequestration and hydrogen or compressed air renewable-energy storage. This project expects to develop innovative methods for monitoring gas leakage contamination into overlying Australian aquifer water resources. Expected outcomes of this project include a multidisciplinary method to detect leakages of CO2 and future stored-energy gases that can contaminate aquifers. This should provide significant benefits including enabling greenhouse gas emissions reduction while protecting Australian water resources. This is critically important for Great Artesian Basin aquifers that support over 180,000 Australians and overlie many planned storage sites.Read moreRead less
