IWA-RMTC 2024 | 18-21 June 2024
IWA-RMTC 2024
Welcome words and scope
On behalf of the organizing committee, we are delighted to invite you to Palermo (Italy) for the 7th IWA Regional Membrane Technology Conference, IWA-RMTC 2024.
IWA-RMTC has been running since 2008, following Moscow (2008), Istanbul (2010), Buenos Aries (2012), Ho Chi Minh City (2014), Kunming City (2016), and Vadodara (2018). Palermo will be the meeting point for the 7th IWA-RMTC edition in 2024.
The IWA-RMTC 2024 deals with the main and advanced topics related to membrane technologies for water and wastewater treatment (e.g., novel membrane materials and configurations, energy recovery from water and wastewater, fouling mechanisms and control, membrane process development and optimization, drinking water and wastewater treatment, desalination, etc.) by focusing the attention on the interrelationship among the entire water cycle, environment, and society.
The IWA-RMTC 2024 will be organized jointly with the International Conference on Wider-Uptake of Water Resource Recovery from Wastewater Treatment (ICWRR2024). ICWRR2024 is the final event of the 4-year EU project: Achieving Wider-Uptake of water smart solutions – Wider-Uptake. Eminent keynote Water Reuse experts will foster multidisciplinary collaboration and dialogue.
IWA-RMTC 2024 and ICWRR2024 will be the perfect match to create a forum for promoting the discussion amongst scientists, professionals and academia on membrane technology and resource recovery.
We also hope that your participation to the Conference in Palermo will provide you the opportunity to explore the rest of Italy, to savor its diverse and rich mixture of ethnic traditions, culture, cuisine, and religious sites. We look forward to welcoming you to the colourful and vibrant city of Palermo and see you in 2024.
