CWR’s outreach for water lectures

On 23rd August 2017, three representatives from CWR, Ms He Miao, Ms Chen Yiwei and Mr Oh Guo Liang, were invited to give a lecture to students from Loyang Secondary School and Elias Park Primary School. The primary purpose of the lecture was to educate the students on Singapore water situation and challenges. The students were actively engaged in learning the four national taps of Singapore and how NEWater and desalination play a pivoting role in maintaining the Singapore’s water security. This is to instil the importance of conserving, valuing and enjoying the water resources to the younger generation.

As part of the World Water Day observation in CHIJ St Nicholas Girls’ School (Secondary), Research Engineer Mr. Loh Wei Hao was invited to showcase some of the research directions that Centre of Water Research (CWR) is currently pursuing on Friday, 24th March 2017. CHIJ St Nicholas Girls’ School (Secondary) advocate holistic research experience for the students. Hence, the students are exposed to advanced research topics such as contaminant adsorption, wastewater reuse technologies etc. Some of the students and even the teachers were interested in the research topics that Mr. Loh Wei Hao presented, and short discussions were done to ensure that the students and teachers could understand CWR’s R&D better. Importance on water security was emphasised during the exhibition, so as allow the students to understand the important of water and wastewater treatment technologies in Singapore, so as to ensure that our water supply in Singapore can meet the demands of Singapore’s population in a sustainable way.
