Eco Detection is an Australian-based company specializing in water quality monitoring technology. This talk discusses the innovative solutions developed by Eco Detection for real-time, high-frequency water analysis, utilizing advanced laboratory-grade capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) to measure dissolved inorganics with high sensitivity. Eco Detection's technology can help to improve environmental management and operational decision-making through continuous detection, particularly as it relates to nutrients, which can be highly variable with flow and land use change. The company provides practical field solutions that allow for near real-time monitoring of water quality, integrating data into supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems to support rapid assessment, guidance to regulators and enforcement where required. New insights are now being developed about variability of water quality and the lack of suitability of routine and infrequent monitoring to develop systems-scale perspectives.
