Instrument pour mesurer l'eau

The goal is to develop a tool that, in real time, can sample runoff water in port terminals. Such a tool will make it possible to closely monitor water quality near terminals at all times and, in turn, help protect the St. Lawrence River ecosystem.

This project is part of the Port of Montreal’s ongoing efforts to improve water quality in the river. Recently, for example, 31 hydrodynamic separators were installed to reduce discharges of suspended matter and hydrocarbons into the river, serving as a stormwater treatment system.

Conducted in collaboration with Novarium, a Rimouski-based company specializing in the water sector, the call for bidders closes in early 2024.
