This project aims to utilise the Australian Census 2021, a unique opportunity to link exposure to chemical and biological hazards with catchment socio-demographic data via systematic wastewater analysis. The project is expected to advance our capabilities to identify emerging hazards and understand factors that affect spatiotemporal trends in hazards across Australia. Moreover, in a world first, the project aims to assess chemical fate on a national level by linking sales/use with fate and release from wastewater treatment plants and assess treatment efficiency at >100 plants around Australia. The project expects to provide insight for government, wastewater managers and industry into hazards that may affect environmental and human health.

该项目旨在利用2021年澳大利亚人口普查，这是一个独特的机会，通过系统的废水分析将化学和生物危害与流域社会人口数据联系起来。该项目预计将提高我们的能力，以确定新出现的危害和了解影响澳大利亚各地危害的时空趋势的因素。此外，该项目旨在通过将销售/使用与废水处理厂的最终结果和排放联系起来，在国家一级评估化学品的最终结果，并评估澳大利亚100多家工厂的处理效率，这在世界上尚属首次。该项目预计将为政府、废水管理者和工业界提供有关可能影响环境和人类健康的危害的见解。
