Safe water supply and sustainable water resources management demand for appropriate water and wastewater treatment technologies. Membranes are increasingly playing an essential role in water purification and in concepts aiming at closing the water cycle.
Hence the scope of the 6th IWA Specialist Conference, which is organised by the Institute for Environmental Engineering (ISA) and the Chair for Chemical Process Engineering (AVT) of RWTH Aachen University, covers the whole range of membrane applications in the water sector. A variety of aspects related to drinking water treatment, domestic and industrial wastewater treatment, new membrane materials and configurations as well as process optimisation will be discussed.
It is carried out in conjunction with the International Water Association (IWA). In the IWA 10,000 individual and 400 corporate members from 130 countries are brought together as leading water professionals in science, research, technology and practice to work towards responsible water resources utilisation.
