Ontario Post-Secondary Institutions Research Capacity
OWC includes 9 post-secondary members located across Ontario. Each brings its own unique strength and capacity in academic research, and research and demonstration facilities.
Demonstration Facilities
In 2015, two unique facilities for wastewater technology demonstration were commissioned, in partnership with the host cities and universities. The Guelph Wastewater Facility (GWF) is a bench and pilot-scale facility constructed adjacent to the City of Guelph’s municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) and managed by the University of Guelph. The London Wastewater Facility (LWF) is led by Western University and the City of London, and located at London’s Greenway Pollution Control Plant.
