Description

A next-generation computational framework for evolving sewer networks. This project aims to drive a paradigm shift in sewer management, enabling water utilities to simultaneously manage Australia’s ageing sewer infrastructure and embracing emerging applications for the next-generation smart, sustainable sewer systems. By learning from the intrinsic features of sewer environments, this project expects to transform the understandings and interpretations of modern-day sewer networks. Anticipated outcomes include new knowledge and smart water technologies for sewer network modelling and prediction. This should advance Australia’s smart water monitoring and control, enhance wastewater infrastructure resilience, decrease sewage overflows and greenhouse gas emissions, and safeguard public health.. Scheme: Discovery Early Career Researcher Award. Field: 4005 - Civil Engineering. Lead: Dr Jiuling Li
