New WEST Center to Address Water and Energy Sustainability

Dec. 4, 2015
The University of Arizona (UA) and Pima County have recently announced the opening of the Water and Energy Sustainable Technology (WEST) Center in Pima County's new water reclamation facility, Agua Nueva.

The WEST Center is a new state-of-the-art facility for research and development focused on water treatment technologies, contaminant monitoring tools, and energy minimization and production. This collaboration between the UA and Pima County will bring together water and energy experts, the public, government, and private corporations to improve water and energy sustainability.

Support funding for this project has been provided by the Technology and Research Initiative Fund (TRIF), through the Water, Environmental and Energy Solutions initiative.
