3D Tours
We offer 3D virtual tours of our water and sewage treatment processes for use by teaching staff.
Students and staff can explore the immersive 3D sites at their own pace. Within the sites there is information provided by clickin on 'hotspots'. This includes website links, documents, photographs and short clips. The visual elements of the 3D tours can be viewed using a mouse and the arrows on your computer. A virtual reality headset is not necessary but certainly enhances the experience.
Tours available include:
- Water treatment plant - dissolved air flotation filtration process
- Wastewater treatment plant - biological nutrient removal process
- Wastewater treatment plant - lagoon system
Access to the complete tours and complementary teacher resources are available by emailing education@newater.com.au.

Off-River Storage Time Lapse
The provision of secure and reliable water supply for our communities faces many challenges such as a variable and often unpredictable climate.
This short time lapse clip shows the construction of an off-river storage to deliver the objective of improved environment flows in the nearby river by reducing urban extractions during low river flow periods. The fact sheet outlines some of the construction considerations required to achieve this outcome.
