Survey on fit-for-purpose technologies

The research team for “Fit-for-purpose water production” (Project C1.3) team is looking for feedback from CRC for Water Sensitive Cities participants (including industry partners, Research Advisory Sub-Committee and Stakeholder Advisory Sub-Committee) and other industry stakeholders regarding stormwater and greywater systems that are currently being implemented.

The survey will form a key part of a review that aims to identify and understand benefits and limitations of existing fit-for-purpose water technologies in Australia. Consequently, we would like to identify specific stormwater and greywater systems that are currently performing or under-performing based on their design specifications to be used as case studies for further evaluation.

In the survey you will be asked to provide information relating to a specific stormwater and/or greywater system that you know. Participants are also invited to provide feedback and information on multiple systems if they so choose.

For one system, the survey will take around 15 minutes and cover topics such as:

Identification of the stormwater/greywater system (where is it?)
Details on water sources and end uses (if any)
Basic information on the treatment technology applied and its performance
Your opinion on possible benefits (for you, for your community, for the environment, etc.) of the stormwater/greywater system.
Answers will be anonymous however respondents will be able to provide contact details if they would like to provide further information on the specific water scheme that you have described throughout the survey.

The survey can be taken until 10 August 2015.
Queries can be forwarded to Dr Rebekah Henry, Department of Civil Engineering.
