The ‘Urban Design Challenge’ took off at The University of Queensland on 21 June 2021. It taught participants the value of multidisciplinary teamwork in addressing complex urban issues through integrated water and energy design for sustainable and resilient cities.
This week’s presenters are Zhiyao Wang and Angelica Guerrero Calderon and you can find the details of their presentations below. We look forward to seeing you on Friday morning.
This presentation discusses some existing water supply and demand management challenges and potential solutions using a case study from some recently completed research which worked with four remote communities to explore culturally appropriate, place-based community water demand management strategies.
This research investigates a more sustainable and cost-effective N&P removal process from wastewater, benefiting the environment and improving the viability of wastewater recycling.
This presentation will deliver our recent discoveries that non-antibiotic pharmaceuticals can speed up the spread of antibiotic resistance. They are invisible or neglected factors for antibiotic resistance, like all icebergs lying underwater. In addition, we would like to discuss our future plans in environmental dimension of antibiotic resistance.
Professor Zhiguo Yuan AM will give a presentation outlining AWMC's newest ARC Linkage Project: Sewer corrosion reduction through model-supported ventilation control.
The Urban Design Challenge Winter School challenges multidisciplinary teams of planners, architects, engineers and others, to create new urban developments that are more liveable, sustainable, resilient and resource efficient.
