A fellowship trip with Sydney Water
After a few false starts due to COVID-19, the knowledge transfer fellowship trip
between Sydney Water and TRILITY became a reality in early October 2022.
Led by Greg Wood (Regional Operations Manager, NSW, Victoria and
Tasmania), the trip demonstrated some of the innovative treatment practises
related to domestic sewerage and biosolids processing that TRILITY operates.
This allowed our client (Sydney Water) to obverse and learn more about the
variety of work we do around the country.
The trip started with a tour of the Yarra Park WRF, adjacent to the MCG.
During our visit, one of the Membrane Bioreactors was offline for maintenance,
allowing a once-in-10-year opportunity to look inside. There were also valuable
operational lessons shared, relating to aeration intervals and influent
composition variability and its effect on plant performance. The following
day we made our way to Barwon Heads, where TRILITY operates the Barwon
Biosolids thermal drying facility.
The fellowship formed great new relationships between TRILITY and
Sydney Water and has led to an increased interest in the work that TRILITY
is completing. Following the trip, the Sydney Water fellowship attendees
expressed a keen interest in visiting the Macarthur WFP and are excited to
observe the similarities and differences between the organisations so we
can learn from each other!

We look forward to continuing this fellowship with Sydney Water next year as
we continue to share our knowledge and form relationships with our clients.
