“The growing level of micropollutants in wastewater and the damage they can do to the ecosystem is an increasingly important issue for the industry,” commented Peter Brewer, Business Director – Technology Projects from Veolia Water Technologies UK. “Despite this, micropollutants remain largely unmonitored and common water treatment processes are only able to remove 20 to 40%.

“With the concentration of these pollutants expected to increase amid climate change and water scarcity concerns, the industry must take action. We look forward to an informative and useful session for those looking for solutions and the chance to gain insight and advice from peers as well as specialists teams successfully dealing with micropollutants already.”
