WWEM 2008 announces conference topics
Posted: Tuesday 4th December 2007
WWEM 2008 (Telford International Centre, 5th and 6th November) will focus on the regulation of testing and monitoring in the water, waste and land sectors.
Heavily supported by the Environment Agency, the main Conference will cover themes such as:
The Environment Agency and the modernisation of regulationMCERTS flow inspection- benefits for process operators
Cost effective self monitoring – use of instrumentation and test kits
A new MCERTS scheme for laboratory water analysis
MCERTS soils schemes and the importance of sampling
Open channel flow - views of the Flow Club
Effluent monitoring in line with MCERTS
Process optimisation
The cost of getting it wrong
The Agency’s Paul Wiggins says, “Many manufacturers of monitoring instrumentation have either received MCERTS certificates or have products under test. The latest analytical water quality product to be certified is Emerson’s online pH monitor, and the latest automatic samplers to be certified are from SIRCO Controls and Teledyne Isco. I would urge manufacturers to start planning for WWEM 2008 now, in order to avoid the inevitable rush of products that will need testing next Spring.”
Marcus Pattison, WWEM 2008 organiser, says, “It will be even bigger and better than the 2006 event, with more exhibitors, more international visitors, and an even more comprehensive programme of Conferences and Workshops. The MCERTS schemes continue to expand, affecting more people in more countries every year and WWEM will present a fabulous opportunity to keep abreast of developments in Regulation as well as technology.
Typically, WWEM visitors are involved in process control, quality or flow monitoring, laboratory analysis, instrumentation, regulatory compliance, education and research.
WWEM is tightly focused on testing and monitoring and as such it has become the focal point for the whole sector. It provides an opportunity for visitors to learn a great deal in the Conferences and Workshops and to study the entire industry in a single visit.
With so much going on at WWEM we strongly urge visitors to plan their time carefully – WWEM is a working event and even though most presentations and Workshops are repeated on both days, many of our visitors find it necessary to stay for the duration.”
