IWA Particle Separation Conference

Themes:

• Advances in particle science and characterization and in basic mechanisms of particle separation processes
• Occurrence of natural and synthetic nano- and microparticles in surface waters and wastewaters
• Progress in particle removal technologies, such as coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation, flotation, filtration,
• low pressure membranes (ultra- and microfiltration)
• Practical use, full scale experiences and optimisation for these removal technologies, including automatic control
• Emerging technologies for particle removal
• New treatment chemicals for particle separation
• Fate, stability and transformation of engineered nanomaterials in urban wastewater system
• Handling of sludge containing nanoparticles
• Advances of nanotechnology-based applications in the water sector (including polyfunctional membranes,
• nanocatalysts, and reactive nanomaterials)
