Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia
Griffith University opened the $18 million Smart Water Research Centre in late November of 2009 on the Gold Coast campus in Queensland, Australia. The facility will support collaborative research with state water authorities and industry partners to develop technologies and solutions to secure future water supplies. The Smart Water Research Centre houses laboratories, distillation rooms, a resource center, and constructed wetlands for wastewater treatment. The facility was created in partnership with the Queensland Government, Gold Coast City Council, Central Queensland University, University of Southern Queensland, the International Water Centre, Wide Bay Water Corporation, and Aqua Diagnostic.
