Cees Boeter Award 2008 On June 6 th , the BSc water management award for the best BSc thesis work was presented for the sixth time. As from 2006 the award is called the Cees Boeter award. Cees Boeter was involved for almost 40 years to the laboratory of Sanitary Engineering. The Cees Boeter award is used by the department Water management to promote students to achieve high scientific results and to apply results of thesis work in daily field practice. The winner of the award receives 250 Euro. This price was sponsored by the Department of Watermanagement this year. For the academic year 2007/2008 the following persons were nominated: • Bart Bergmans. Discolouration is caused by resuspension of sedi- ments in the distribution network. To gain more insight in the discolouration risk the Resuspension Potential Method (RPM) has been developed. For his BSc thesis Bart has executed several measurements at the Waterleiding Maatschappij Limburg (WML). He validated the by WML adjusted version of the RPM and evaluated measurement results of the adjusted RPM. • Cheryl Bertelkamp. Due to possible hazardous effects it is neces- sary to remove organic micro-pollutants from the surface water. At Udo Ouwekerk receiving the moment Duinwaterbedrijf Zuid-Holland considers the applica- the Cees Boeter award tion of UV/H2O2 in Bergambacht to remove micro-pollutants. Cheryl investigated how the UV-tranmission of the produced water in Bergambacht could be improved by means of an extended pre-treatment. From her literature study it was found that activated carbon filtration, ion exchange, ultra filtration and coagulation seemed the most promising techniques. With laboratory experiments the suitability of activated carbon filtration was further investigated. • Udo Ouwekerk. Sara Lee/DE has developed a new water dispenser: the aQa Pickwick water system. The aQa Pickwick is directly fitted on the water distribution network. It delivers water with a constant quality and taste to the customer independent of the local water quality. The jury decided to give the “Cees Boeter award 2008” to Udo Ouwekerk. The aQa Pickwick has the disadvantage that not every abstracted liter of tap water ends up in the product. Udo investigated how the water consumption of the aQa Pickwick could be reduced. Furthermore he investigated several alternatives in the laboratory. Udo has set-up and executed his experiments in a structured and self-employed way. The presentation of his results written in a <strong>report</strong> as well as oral was of a high level. Enough reasons for the jury to award the Cees Boeter award 2008 to Udo Ouwekerk. 28 <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>report</strong> DWE 2008
Gijs Oskam Award 2008 During the Vakantiecursus 2008 the Gijs Oskam for the best MSc thesis work was presented for the fifth time. As known this price is awarded every two years to a promising young researcher in the field of drinking water. The Gijs Oskam award which consists of a price of € 1000 is meant for young graduates. Criteria for granting the award are originality and the quality of the research. From the applications three candidates are nominated by the Committee. The work of the nominees will be incorporated in the book work of the Vakantiecursus and will be presented on a poster as well. For the Gijs Oskam Award 2008 the following persons were nominated: Karin Teunissen (TU Delft) for her research on iron removal at pumping station Harderboek, Assiyeh Tabatabai (IHE) for her research on membrane fouling and Doris van Halem (TU Delft) for her research on ceramic pot filters. The jury found it very difficult to des- Doris van Halem receiving the Gijs Oskam award ignate a winner this year because all three nominees were of exceptional high level. Karin Teunissen proved that significant breakthrough of particles occurs when the filters of pumping station Harderbroek are back washed or linked. She graduated cum laude and begun with her PhD research at DZH and TU Delft. Assiyeh Tabatatbai investigated the influence of coagulation on the MFI and the pollution of membrane filtration. She proved to be an excellent researcher and started her PhD research at UNESCO-IHE. Doris van Halem graduated cum laude as well and started her PhD research on the removal of arsenic from groundwater at TU Delft and UNESCO-IHE. The jury decided to grant the Gijs Oskam Award 2008 to Doris van Halem because of “her exceptional passion to contribute to the huge water problems in the third world.”. Gijs Oskam Award 2008/2009 The Gijs Oskam award is a prize for the student with the best MSc thesis work. For the coming year the Gijs Oskam award is sponsored by Evers & Manders Consult. The Award includes a money prize of 2,500 euro as well as a ‘oorkonde’ research awards 29
