Remote controlled boat technology assists Angaston's wastewater treatment plant

Description

Two innovative remote-controlled boats will navigate Angaston’s wastewater treatment lagoons in an efficient new way to improve sludge management and minimise odour at the facility.

Developed by the University of Western Australia, the 10kg, one metre-long vessels, use sonar navigation technology to remotely survey sludge build-up at the bottom of the Angaston facility’s wastewater lagoons.
