Sustainable Water & Wastewater Infrastructure
Water availability is always a major concern in the Middle East, being one of the driest regions in the world, and the growth in almost all industries, the demand for water is higher than what it can be offered. The economy meltdown has also given an opportunity to the industry to look into a more sustainable ways of producing water.
Last year's event: It was done based on a congress module. Strong focus on water management. This year's event: Looks into the advanced technology and the most updated environmental frameworks.
Potential Topics:
Managing Demand in Water & Wastewater Industry
Air Pollution and Greenhouse Gas Emission from Wastewater & Desalination Plants
Carbon Trading
Pipeline Anticorrosion
Sustainable Plant Layout & Design
Water Management:
- Technology: Floating Nuclear Power Plant & Carbon Nanotube Membrane
- Managing biological activities in the ocean
- Brine Management - Seawater Desalination
Wastewater Management:
- Sustainable wastewater reuse & recycling
- Disposal of treated effluent
- Biogas Generation from Wastewater
Sustainable Frameworks:
- Water Soft Path Approach
- Water Footprint
The demand for water and wastewater infrastructure has always been very high as compared to the supply that is being offered by the industry.
Finding the most cost effective way of managing water & wastewater without compromising the quality. Looking into new technology that is cost effective and sustainable.
Main Problems:
- Demand higher than supply
- Relatively high operating cost
- Environmental concerns
- Low awareness
Main Priorities:
- Looking into solution in managing the demand and supply
- Looking into the possibility of implementing new technology that is more cost effective and sustainable
- Increasing awareness of water usage and environmental concerns
