Improved monitoring of aquatic pollutants in national water resources

清洁水预计将在本世纪成为世界上最有价值的资产，这就需要对澳大利亚有限的水资源进行更好的监测。利用新的综合监测方法，该项目预计将开发和实施新的被动采样技术，以监测一系列水污染物，特别是新出现的有毒离子化有机化学品。该项目的成果将创造具有成本效益的工具，促进对饮用水、地面、地表水和废水中新出现的化学物质的检测。这项技术将通过保护必要的水资源使数百万澳大利亚人受益。

Clean water is predicted to become the world’s most valuable asset during this century, necessitating the improved monitoring of Australia’s limited water resources. Using a new and integrated monitoring approach, this project expects to develop and implement novel passive sampling technologies to monitor a range of water pollutants, specifically toxic ionised organic chemicals of emerging concern. The outcomes of this project will create cost-effective tools to advance the detection of emerging chemicals in drinking, ground, surface and waste waters. The technology will benefit millions of Australians by safeguarding essential water resources.
