How a CDS will impact recycling and waste in Victoria
Cash for cans, otherwise known as a Container Deposit Scheme (CDS), is the collection of drink containers with the purpose to exchange them for a cash refund. Across Australia, all states and territories, other than Victoria and Tasmania, have already adopted some form of CDS. But this is soon to change in Victoria.

Leveraging the cloud for better design of wastewater treatment plants
For many years, the availability of integrated design and process simulation packages has not serviced industrial, reuse and drinking water plant designs as well as it has for biological treatment plants. Engineers and designers in many cases still rely on manual, repetitive spreadsheet-based processes. Design packages, when available are based on mathematical simulation products that have been repurposed from other industries and difficult to learn and based on desktop pcs that are limited in terms of processing power, data storage and tools for collaboration. Emerging technologies for industrial water treatment and drinking water are often not covered at all.
