Optical sensor system
Detailed Description
Prospective sensor system for on-site measurement of optical properties of water, used in the optical sensor sewage detection study. Water was delivered directly form the sampling location to the sensors for collection of data.

Using optical sensors to detect sewage contamination in the Great Lakes
In the Great Lakes, large volumes of sewage never make it to wastewater treatment plants due to illicit discharges and leaking sewer infrastructure, but contamination can be difficult to detect. This study will define the utility and practicality of using optical sensors to identify the sources and timing of sewage contamination in surface water and storm sewers in real-time field settings.
