This retrofit and phased expansion of an existing biotechnology facility aimed to reduce costs by increasing efficiency, increasing yield, reducing waste and increasing process automation – including multiple interfaces with manufacturing.

The Village of Middle River has lived under a boil water advisory (BWA) for close to 14 years, following a series of failed water treatment attempts.  The challenges associated with providing safe drinking water to this small community proved too daunting for a conventional project approach. Through a research partnership with RES’EAU WaterNET, an innovative technology of biological ion exchange (BIEX) was born. The first full-scale BIEX water treatment plant was commissioned in August 2018, which consequently lifted the long-term boil water advisory in late 2018.

New technologies are rapidly enabling innovations in transportation modes and services. In just a few years, these innovations have brought us ride-hail services, autonomous vehicles, bicycle-sharing systems, ride-pooling services and more. The impacts of these services on our transportation system have largely gone unmeasured.

WSP USA’s experts are engaged in a wide array of national research covering all aspects of connected and automated vehicles (CAV).

WSP USA is advising on technology for the American Center for Mobility, a new connected and automated vehicle test facility in southeast Michigan.
