As a responsible water and wastewater professional and a user of public sanitation services, I condemn this 🫢

One step closer to circularity when we recycle wastewater and biosolids for reuse.

[Sydney Water @SydneyWaterNews]

This will be the most advanced wastewater & recycled water plant in the southern hemisphere.

It’ll treat around 70ML of wastewater per day & produce high-quality treated water for sustainable use in 🏠s & businesses across Western Syd + biosolid products for use in agriculture.

Artificial Intelligence is all the rage... but did you know it's being used beneath our city's streets, monitoring and identifying faults in our wastewater network?

This is a great article about what makes Australian cuisine. It's a question I've always found hard to answer.

[Stuart Khan @stukhan]

Biomethane made from wastewater flushed down Sydney’s toilets has been injected into the gas network for the first time as utility companies trial carbon-neutral fuels to encourage customers to stick with gas in the transition to net-zero emissions. https://t.co/pA8tsECvbu

@stukhan Any idea what the name of this amoeba is, @stukhan ? (Though I'll always think of it as "brain-eating amoeba")

[Marlene Hsu @NexusJournalist]

... as a tool to aid in health response, policy, and even equity for more vulnerable groups in our community.

Today I attended my final workshop with the @WaterRA_updates Wastewater-based epidemiology community of practice. In addition to the work done in Australia, we look to what has been done overseas, including work that @BerndMGawlik has been involved in.

The science-basis has been prepared. Let’s now build this system! Working behind the scene EU Science, Research and Innovation to get governance, policied and IT Systems in place at European Commission . https://t.co/IYEZyziVGm

I'm certainly going to miss this passionate and dedicated group of individuals and look forward to seeing the #WBE Community grow and gain support through all levels of government. There is much to be achieved and we have only scratched the surface of wastewater monitoring

[Marlene Hsu @NexusJournalist]

@stukhan I see! Good to know treating to potable standard has become so much more cost effective than it used to be.

[Sydney Water @SydneyWaterNews]

Food for thought...

Very cool photo shoot, @SydneyWaterNews , very cool 😎

With Barack Obama currently Down Under, we thought we'd invite the former American President to see some of the sights of Sydney...

Originally from #xkcd I believe and then another dedicated scientist turned it into a bingo card 😄 Which ones have you done?

There are plenty of amazing women to recognise on International Women's Day, but this group of women support me, build me up, help me out, and make my job fun every single day and for that I cherish them 💙

#IWD #womenofwater

[Water Research Australia @WaterRA_updates]

Today we recognise the women of Water Research Australia on our staff and board and celebrate their wonderful contributions to the world of water.

Happy #InternationalWomensDay!

[Marlene Hsu @NexusJournalist]

Happy #Holi to those who celebrate!

[Sydney Water @SydneyWaterNews]

The average price of bottled water in Australia is $2.83. If you bought a bottle every day for a year you’d spend $1,032.95. Sydney Water costs less than a cent a litre.

Take the lead from Jilla - ditch the plastic bottle and pour yourself a Warragamba Slammer 🚰

[Marlene Hsu @NexusJournalist]

Well done to @SydneyWaterNews for it's multilingual water saving community engagement campaigns, demonstrating that the responsibility to sustainably manage water for all, requires an approach that reflects modern Australia.
