Brush up on waste

The Water Environment Federation (WEF) and the Air & Waste Management Association (A&WMA), in cooperation with the Water Environment Research Foundation, the Pennsylvania Water Environment Association and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, is holding the 10th annual Industrial Wastes Technical and Regulatory conference Aug. 22-25 at the Adam’s Mark Philadelphia hotel in Philadelphia.

Whether it’s for succession planning, research and development, regulatory compliance or any other business need, successful relationship-building is one of today’s greatest business challenges. Environmental professionals from around the world will gather for this four-day conference designed to encompass environmental regulatory and technical issues related to air, wastewater and residuals from production and/or treatment for a variety of industries. 

A series of presentations and discussions will focus on key regulatory, technical, research and management topics for industries such as petroleum refining, chemical, automotive, electronics, metal finishing, pharmaceuticals, food processing and textiles.

Those encouraged to attend include industrial wastewater treatment personnel (managers, engineers, scientists, plant personnel), industry environmental consultants, military and refinery treatment personnel, equipment manufacturers, municipal treatment plant personnel and pretreatment coordinators, national, regional, state and local regulators, environmental, health and safety personnel, professors and students from engineering and environmental science programs at universities and colleges, and laboratory personnel who are doing sampling and analysis for industries.
