Nordetect

Optimisation of sensors for testing water quality

The aim of the project is to benchmark Nordetect’s affordable and easy to use sensor for testing Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium from water samples. These chemicals are commonly referred to as runoff and form a major source of ground water and environmental contamination in countries.
This work will take place in the DTU Environment and will incorporate learnings and comparative studies for analysis of these ions. This will benefit the company with getting a standard laboratory validation of the method of analysis. Together with DTU Healthtech, the company will assess sensitivity of the assay
and ways to make it more robust by ensuring reproducibility.
