As a strategic collaboration among three universities founded in 1905, the S3 Forum aims to promote interdisciplinary research and education on sustainability. This year\u2019s forum centred around the theme \u201cAI for Sustainability\u201d and featured high-level exchanges between university leaders, thematic sessions on sustainable technology, cities, and policy, as well as the release of a climate-health atlas and the signing of a joint training agreement. The forum served as a dynamic platform for advancing innovation in climate action, urban resilience, and environmental governance through international and intersectoral dialogue.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Zhang Xinyang, a member of the Centre for Water Research (CWR) and Ph.D. candidate at the National University of Singapore, participated as an NUS delegate in the PhD Session. Her presentation, titled \u201cAntibiotics Removal and Antimicrobial Resistance Control by Ozone\/Peroxymonosulfate-Biological Activated Carbon\u201d, introduced a novel hybrid treatment process designed to mitigate antimicrobial resistance risks in biological activated carbon systems. Her research demonstrated that the O\u2083\/PMS-BAC process significantly outperformed conventional treatments in reducing both antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes in treated effluent and biofilms. The talk contributed to the forum\u2019s emphasis on data-driven, sustainable technologies and highlighted the importance of integrating chemical oxidation and biological methods to enhance the safety and efficacy of water treatment systems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-20358 \" src=\"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/cee\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2025\/06\/Picture1-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"724\" height=\"482\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/cee\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2025\/06\/Picture1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/cee\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2025\/06\/Picture1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/cee\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2025\/06\/Picture1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/cee\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2025\/06\/Picture1.jpg 1375w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 724px) 100vw, 724px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-20359 \" src=\"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/cee\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2025\/06\/Picture2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/cee\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2025\/06\/Picture2.jpg 896w, https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/cee\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2025\/06\/Picture2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cde.nus.edu.sg\/cee\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2025\/06\/Picture2-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 2025 S3 Sustainability Forum, jointly organised by Fudan University, the National University of Singapore, and Korea University, was held in Shanghai in May 2025.
