项目摘要

The NSERC Chair in Water Treatment at the University of Waterloo functions as a centre of expertise, with amission to conduct leading edge, fundamentally based, yet practically oriented research on critical issuesrelated to water treatment and quality, and to facilitate interactions between Canadian industry and universities.Our research addresses the short- to medium-term needs of our funding partners, which include municipalities,consultants and industry involved in the treatment and provision of water. Research conducted over the fiveyear period (2018-2022) of the Chair term will address challenges including drastically changing source waterqualities, more stringent regulations and the desire for more sustainable processes all the while ensuring robustprotection of public health. The three major research themes include:A - Successfully Managing Raw Water Quality Changes through Robust Systems, which will develop tools tohelp utilities plan for extreme weather events, spill scenarios, seasonally occurring cyanotoxins blooms, andemerging contaminants such as microplastics.B - Green and Innovative Treatment Processes, which will study biofiltration for cyanotoxin removal,sustainable approaches to control groundwater hardness and manganese using newer technologies, and novel,reusable composite adsorbents for contaminants such as cyanotoxins.C - Understanding Corrosion with a Focus on Lead, which will investigate corrosion control measures tominimize lead release from existing lead pipes and lead-bearing plumbing system components, and also

滑铁卢大学的NSERC水处理主席是专业知识的中心，在基于基础的，但实际上是针对与水处理和质量相关的关键问题的基于实际但实际上是针对性的研究，并促进加拿大工业与大学之间的互动。主席期限（2018 - 2022年）进行的研究将解决挑战，包括巨大变化的来源供水，更严格的法规以及对更可持续的过程的渴望，同时确保公共卫生的稳健保护。 The three major research themes include:A - Successfully Managing Raw Water Quality Changes through Robust Systems, which will develop tools tohelp utilities plan for extreme weather events, spill scenarios, seasonally occurring cyanotoxins blooms, andemerging contaminants such as microplastics.B - Green and Innovative Treatment Processes, which will study biofiltration for cyanotoxin removal,sustainable approaches to control groundwater hardness and manganese使用较新的技术和新颖的可重复使用的复合吸附剂，用于污染物，例如氰毒素。
