Burnett Regional Water Demand Study

Psi delta is in the process of preparing a water demand study for the Wide-bay Burnett region, on behalf of Department of Natural Resource and Water. Water demand assessment will be examined based on current demand and supply trends. Through comprehensive customer consultation, literature review and expert analysis, a model will be generated to interpolate demand trends for the next 50 years.

Shepparton East Modernisation

Psi Delta has recently completed a water demand assessment and collaborated with GHD engineering in the community consultation of the modernisation scheme for Shepparton East. The project was initiated on behalf of Goulburn Murray Water to analyse the viability of proposed upgrades to irrigation channel 10 and 11. 

Cairns Water Plan for Recycled Water Use

Psi Delta developed and conducted a study to examine the opportunity of developing recycled water in certain areas. This included the generation of ten water re-use options and the provision of financial and sustainability evaluation
of these options.

Bundaberg City Council Water Recycling Scheme

Psi Delta prepared a strategic plan for the supply and use of recycled water in the region. An intensive study of the region’s water resource, demand for recycle water, existing infrastructure was reviewed and a financial model, project risk assessment and implementation plan was delivered.

Barwon Water Recycling Plan

Psi-Delta undertook a detailed risk assessment and evaluation of the recycled water sector. The study was to provide a Regional Water Recycling Plan (RWRP) which would further refine the strategic directions established in Barwon.

Boneo Group

Psi-Delta devised a community wide water savings, water recycling and groundwater reduction program on behalf of the client Boneo Group.

South Gippsland Water Recycling Plan

Psi-Delta on behalf of the Board of South Gippsland Water (SGW) conducted a review on the proposed development of a 200 megalitres water recycling scheme, from the Leongatha plant. The project produced a policy, pricing and practical implementation evaluation and recommendation on behalf of the client. 

Sun Water

Psi-Delta was consulting for the Paradise Dam project, the main component of which was water demand assessment for a 160,000 megalitre scheme.

Eastern Irrigation Scheme

Psi-Delta coordinated a feasibility study for developing and then implementing, a $30m project to recycle at least 5,000 ML of Melbourne’s wastewater. The project included negotiations with industrial users and contributed to the market assessment, economic evaluation, risk assessment, development of water contracts, negotiations with potential customers, and the sale of water that underpinned this scheme.

South East Queensland Recycle Water Project

In collaboration with GHD-Engineering, Psi-delta assisted in the development of a cost-effective strategy to recycle treated water from South East Queensland for irrigation reuse. In particular the project proposed and evaluated two options aimed at optimising treatment, transport and delivery for the reuse scheme. The completed report delivered a background study of region’s resource, legislative requirements for the treatment of the wastewater and a cost evaluation of the options proposed.

South East Queensland Recycled Water Project

Psi-Delta complied a feasibility study and business plan including; market, environmental, social, economic and financial assessment. The project objective was to develop a $700m infrastructure project to recycle Brisbane’s wastewater to distribute to the Lockyer Valley and the Darling Downs. The scheme included consideration of water for use in a new paper mill and for cooling for a major coal-fired power plant. The horticultural and industrial components of this scheme are expected to proceed in 2006.

Wetalla Irrigation Scheme developed by the Toowoomba City Council in 2001

Psi-Delta produced a feasibility study including market assessment for an 8,000 ML reuse scheme west of Toowoomba. While principally for agriculture, this scheme included use of water for coal washing and other industrial uses.
