The Urban Water Unit has infrastructures and laboratory equipment within its operational unit UQTA - Water Quality and Treatment Laboratory, to perform i) water and wastewater analyses, ii) chlorine decay studies and discolouration loose deposits characterization in distribution systems and iii) pilot- and bench-scale assays for effectiveness and efficiency optimisation of conventional or advanced (waste)water treatment processes. Field devices are also available for water quality monitoring, water sampling and wastewater drainage systems inspection. |
