Pioneering global water solutions - IWA World Water Congress ...

Thursday preliminary programme
08:15 – 09:00 Keynote speaker Wim van Vierssen KWR, Netherlands
09:15 – 10:45
Workshop: Uncertainty in wastewater Photocatalysis in drinking water treatment Improvement of conventional water
treatment, design and operation
treatment technologies—clarifi cation
Lead Evangelina Belia
In this workshop, we present the work of the IWA Task
Group on Uncertainty Evaluations in WWTP Design
and Operations, which describes the state-of-the-art
in practice and academia. We want you to discuss
with us the results and future steps to develop a
recognised, accepted, adopted methodology and
toolbox to deal with uncertainty in WWTP design and
operation.
10:45 – 11:15 Morning break
11:15 – 12:45
Project Innovation Awards global winners
showcase
The Project Innovation Awards is a prestigious
global competition which recognises and celebrates
innovation and excellence in water engineering
projects around the world in six project categories—
applied research, planning, design, operations/
management, small projects, and marketing and
communications. The showcase features presentations
by the global winners and honour awardees, to
highlight the unique innovations and engineering that
make these projects global models. The sessions follow
the Project Innovation Awards global awards ceremony
and dinner (held on the evening of Wednesday 19
September).

Workshop: Eco-business parks—developing
effective regulatory regimes
Leads Brian D’Arcy and Arno van Breemen
Regulation and enforcement is critical to help
industrial estates achieve better and more effective
regulation to ensure technical solutions are in place
and effective. In the workshop, we will show case
studies of excellent regulatory regimes, share lessons
from problems experienced with regulations, and
develop simple conclusions (such as a ‘do and don’t’
list for drafting regulations and enforcement regimes
for ecobusiness parks and industrial estates).
