About
A major component of our work is in Integrated Resource Planning and Management, with a strong focus on water. We apply Circular Water Economy principles and the 5Rs approach to water management (reduce, reuse, recycle, restore and recover).
We offer a range of circular water economy and resource efficiency services including identification of available water sources and users (potable and non-potable demands), water modelling, development of supply/demand water balance and water footprint, identification and assessment of opportunities and constraints for water conservation and reuse, development of water-related sustainability criteria and targets, development of resource efficiency and reuse initiatives, feasibility assessment and prioritisation, preparation of resource strategies and plans.
Our work in Water Planning and Management is integrated with and supported by our work in environmental and ecological assessments and green infrastructure development.
Sustainability Outcomes
Appropriate water management, which considers the entire water cycle and all users and demands (including ecological water demands) is critical for achieving sustainable development goal 6 (SDG 6) which is ‘to ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all’. Considering the scale of potential impacts of infrastructure projects on water supplies, which are already under significant stress due to climate change and increased population growth, the need for a holistic approach to integrated water planning and management is evident.
The Syrinx team has a 20-year successful history in water planning and developing innovative and sustainable solutions for water supply, wastewater and stormwater collection, and treatment and reuse in various locations across Australia.
Our service aim to support clients to achieve credits within the Water Category ( ISv2.0 Wat-1, Wat-2, and ISv1.2 Wat-1, Wat-2) , including the development of base case proposals, site-specific water balance modelling, and development of a portfolio of feasible water management options.

| Wat-2 (ISv1.2) | Replace potable water - To reward replacing potable water where this makes economic and environmental sense across the infrastructure lifecycle. | The Syrinx team has a 25 years’ history in water related projects including planning and developing innovative and sustainable solutions, including the EnPhytoBox®, for water supply, wastewater and stormwater collection, treatment and reuse in various locations across Australia. Syrinx’s EnPhytoBox helps meet the dual need for more local water supplies treated at source within a low energy and carbon framework, noting that polluted water can be an untapped resource. Evaporation ponds and storages associated with mines, landfills, tailings and wastewater cause water wastage and environmental impacts. Losses associated with evaporation, overtopping and seepages amount to >250 GL/year). Contamination of local waterways from acid drainage, leachate seepages and spillages is common. Syrinx’s EnPhytoBox® sustainably treats and harnesses urban, regional and remote polluted water resources to supplement water supplies to agriculture, industry and promote local community growth, by enabling economic opportunities such as native seed production areas, whilst reducing risks to the environment and local communities. https://www.syrinx.net.au/enphytobox/ |
