Water Quality
Research Australia Limited (WQRA) is a national research centre established
to succeed the CRC for
Water Quality and Treatment when the CRC ended on 30 June 2008.
WQRA will undertake
collaborative research of national application on drinking water quality,
recycled water and relevant areas of wastewater management.
The main focus of the research program will be on urban water issues
related to public health and acceptability aspects of water supply,
water recycling and aspects of wastewater management. WQRA
will also continue a Regional and Rural Water Supplies Program aimed
at improving water quality and public health in rural areas. It will
also develop an Education Program, utilising the most successful elements
of the CRC Program.
