Having undergone a rapid expansion in the use of reverse osmosis technology, the Water Corporation has made advances in seawater desalination applications for potable water supply in Australia. Research-intensive, the Murdoch University has strong links to the desalination industry and is also set to host the new National Centre of Excellence in Desalination.
Sue Murphy, CEO of the Water Corporation said: “Both Water Corporation and Murdoch University firmly recognise that the production of potable water is one of the most important global issues of the 21st century and that the market for large scale desalination is growing rapidly, particularly in Australia. We are pleased to collaborate with IDA to further the industry’s knowledge in this critical area.”
