Announcement of Requirements and Registration for a Prize Competition Titled: More Water Less Concentrate- Stage 1.
Document Number: 2016-29723
Type: Notice
Date: 2016-12-13
Agency: Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation
This Challenge seeks to identify innovative solutions to expand usable water supplies by maximizing fresh water production from inland desalination systems in a cost effective and environmentally sound manner. Currently, significant and desirable water supplies are trapped in concentrate streams that are a byproduct of desalination technologies. The cost to manage or dispose of concentrate is rather large and very limiting to utilization of desalination in inland applications. This is Stage 1 of a planned three-stage Challenge, with the second and third stages consisting of prototype demonstrations in lab and field settings and larger prize purses.
Announcement of Requirements and Registration for a Prize Competition Titled: Arsenic Sensor Challenge-Stage 1
Document Number: 2016-29722
Type: Notice
Date: 2016-12-13
Agency: Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation
This Challenge seeks to identify new or improved sensors, devices, or test kits to test for arsenic in water within natural and engineered systems. Solutions must improve on the current arsenic measurement methods. Areas of needed improvement include: performance, ease of use, reduction in hazardous waste production, data interpretation, and cost. This is Stage 1 of a planned two-stage Challenge, with the second stage consisting of a prototype demonstration and a larger prize purse. The Bureau of Reclamation is the Seeker for this Challenge.
