Abstract
This report has been written to fulfil the requirements of Deliverable D11.7 ‘Report of users’ perceptions and expectations of technologies for rapid microbial analysis’. The report has been produced by the AQUAVALENS team at the University of Surrey based on the results of data collected via a Perceptions and Expectations Questionnaire. This questionnaire was designed by the University of Surrey and was delivered in three study countries with the support of partners at the Instituto Superior Técnico of Lisbon in Portugal, the James Hutton Institute in Scotland, and the University of Belgrade in Serbia, who have been sampling water and piloting AQUAVALENS technologies for small water systems (SWS) as part of Work Package 11 (WP11).
