17th and 18th July, Manchester United Football Stadium
There are changes to Aqua Enviro’s European Waste Water Management (EWWM) conference this year.
Firstly, the event will take place on the 17th and 18th July rather than the usual October date.
There is a new independent Steering Committee: Amber Bullen of Yorkshire Water, Pete Vale of Severn Trent Water, Steve Bungay, Helix ECL, Jennifer Hughes of Thames Water and Arthur Thornton of Atkins. The committee have helped develop a technical programme to stimulate debate on how to meet future challenges and the latest results of practical research into the needs of the water industry.
Over the two days there will be over 45 technical presentations, plus panel discussion covering some of the of high interest environmental themes such as the dealing with flushables; priority substances and emerging contaminants. The programme includes a mix of industry leading invited speakers as well as those accepted from the abstract submission.
Conference sessions include:
- Phosphorus
- Catchments and Networks
- Flush and Forget – Whose Problem is it Anyway?
- Novel and Emerging Processes
- Sustainable Solution
- Priority Substances and Emerging Contaminants
- Posters
- Engineering and Process Optimisation
The Plenary: ‘Why Venture Capital has spectacularly failed in the water sector … and how it is about to change’ by Dr Piers Clark, Founder and Chairman, Isle Utilities should cause a stir.
If you have an interest in wastewater you will most definitely find something of value at this event. It provides the opportunity to be stimulated by new ideas, reflect, meet new and old colleagues and motivating you for the challenges ahead. Please see ewwmconference.com for more information.
