The Water Research Foundation (WRF) is seeking volunteers for three additional funded projects and will soon post Requests for Proposals (RFPs) under the Water Research Foundation Research Priority Program.
This strategic research program enables the foundation to address priority subscriber issues, challenges, and opportunities with targeted research. The project concepts are developed by expert advisory committees and are then prioritised, approved, and funded by the Board-appointed Research Advisory Council. Requests for Proposals (RFPs) for these projects will be posted in mid-September.
The research areas will be as follows: Advanced Treatment for Potable Reuse,
Nutrients Treatment and Stormwater & Flood Management
The foundation is encouraging utilities to participate in these research projects through the Utility Participation in Research (UPIR) Process. Utilities can serve as a test facility, provide samples, respond to surveys, loan equipment, or share staff expertise on research projects of interest.
The Water Research Foundation engages exclusively in nonprofit, charitable, and educational activities designed to initiate, supervise, coordinate, promote, and finance research in the technology, operation, and management of water, wastewater, reuse and stormwater collection, treatment and supply systems, towards ensuring water quality and improving water service to the public.
