This $2,000,000 Cooperative Agreement awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (CFDA 47.084) program aims to advance a new approach to monitoring drinking water quality that will fill gaps in the current monitoring framework. The project will refine and expand the use of commercially available point-of-use (POU) filters as both treatment tools and monitoring devices to detect high priority contaminants. It will also develop...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $650,000 Project Grant under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program (CFDA 47.084) to the University of South Florida (USF) to develop innovative decentralized wastewater management technologies and strategies for U.S. Pacific islands. The project, titled "Towards Resilient, Equitable, Safe and Sustainable Water for Islands (RESSI-H2O)", assembles a multi-disciplinary team from USF, the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa,...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $649,998 Project Grant under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program (CFDA 47.084) to The Washington University and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. The goal of the project is to develop a new passive water quality monitoring tool based on point-of-use water filters to address inequities in drinking water quality monitoring for under-resourced and minority populations. The Washington University will lead the...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $255,849 Project Grant under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships program (CFDA 47.084) to First Water Technology Co. on February 15, 2023. The grant will fund research and development of a compact, low-maintenance drinking water treatment plant through January 31, 2024. Specifically, the company will develop an automated control system for precise coagulant dosing, modify the design to minimize waste streams, and construct a pilot plant with...
This Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems (CFDA 47.041 - Engineering) supports research at South Dakota State University to develop advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) for controlling iodinated disinfection byproducts (I-DBPs) in drinking water. The $209,472 award will fund a 3-year collaborative effort to investigate the use of oxidants like ferrate, ozone, and UV photolysis to efficiently...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Cooperative Agreement (CFDA 47.084 - NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships) awards Purebiox, Inc. $995,600 to develop an end-to-end solution for high-volume water microbiological testing. The goal is to enhance the reliability and standardization of wastewater epidemiology and drinking water testing, with a focus on early detection of waterborne viruses like SARS-CoV-2 and norovirus. The project will integrate a novel filtration cartridge and reagent...
This $107,246 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Civil, Mechanical, and Manufacturing Innovation will fund the "Collaborative Research: Water and Health Infrastructure Resilience and Learning (WHIRL)" project at North Carolina State University. The project aims to enhance understanding of the interactions between drinking water and public health systems and how these critical infrastructure systems adapt to challenges. It will investigate how the public...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $150,000 supports research examining the impact of social capital on access to safe drinking water from private wells. Funded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the University of Virginia will evaluate how positions in social networks contribute to water quality, particularly after flooding events. Researchers will analyze cell phone mobility data to construct social networks and measure network...
This $649,989 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (CFDA 47.084) program supports the development of a portable, membrane-free water purification and monitoring system by Iowa State University of Science and Technology. The overarching goal is to create a fit-for-purpose solution to address water insecurity in regions with limited infrastructure and frequent water quality issues due to climate change or natural...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $650,000 grant under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (CFDA 47.084) program to Cornell University to develop a convergence framework for expediting the deployment of sustainable and resilient water systems in small and very small communities (serving less than 10,000 people). The 1-year project will focus on Puerto Rico as a case study, bringing together diverse stakeholders to address key challenges in water infrastructure,...
