Sixth European Waste Water Management Conference, Manchester, UK

Event date:
2012-10-09 The Sixth European Waste Water Management Conference will take place from 9 to 10 October 2012 in Manchester, UK.

Continued population growth and urbanisation, rapid industrialisation and intensified food production are all putting pressure on water resources. In such context, meeting future demand for water, ensuring sustainable supply systems for potable water and improving treatment of wastewater are some of the major engineering challenges for the 21st century.

Projected water shortages and the need to lower greenhouse gas emissions force most industrialized countries to rethink waste water treatment. The event will address the current problems and potential solutions in this regard, as well as discuss research activities being carried out to operate water treatment at required standards, in a cost-effective and environmentally-friendly manner.
