The organisers of WWEM 2014, the international Water, Wastewater and Environmental Monitoring conference and exhibition, have announced details of the Conferences that will take place at the Telford International Centre in the UK, 5-6th November.
The first day’s Conference will focus on the monitoring aspects of industrial and municipal monitoring, with the second day addressing some of the key issues relating to sampling and laboratory analysis.
WWEM 2014, the sixth in a series of highly successful environmental monitoring events, will provide delegates with the latest information on the techniques, technologies, methods, standards and regulatory requirements that relate to the monitoring which takes place both on-site and in the laboratory, covering sampling, field analysis, gas detection and continuous water and wastewater monitoring applications.
The first day of the Conference will include presentations by senior individuals from the Environment Agency, CSA-Sira, WRc and Siris Environmental, addressing key environmental monitoring issues such as Operator Monitoring Assessment (OMA), CEN standards for water quality and flow monitoring equipment, MCERTS, independent instrument approval, together with examples of ‘the good, the bad and the ugly’ of flow monitoring.
Addressing a laboratory analysis theme, Day 2 of the Conference has been organised by British Measurement and Testing Association. The speakers represent the national accreditation body, UKAS, large water companies and commercial laboratory-based organisations, presentations addressing issues such as proficiency testing, the UKAS document TPS 47, the lowering of detection limits, good sampling protocols, mobile data capture and Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS).
In addition to the main Conferences, delegates will also be provided with access to over 80 Workshops, a Flow Demonstration area, Forums on Flow and SMART Water, and an exhibition featuring over 130 stands representing more than 250 of the world’s leading providers of test and monitoring equipment and related services.
The Smart Water Forum includes a Dissemination Workshop by UK Water Industry Research (UKWIR), the organisation set up by the UK water companies in England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland in to facilitate collaborative research.
The workshop will see the dissemination of the results of a UKWIR study which examined the needs for instrumentation, process automation, modelling and control within the wastewater industry and what the future holds for the sector.
