Objectives
Water and energy are the issues of this millennium. This conference on desalination for the environment
will be devoted to advances towards providing fresh water for all, at affordable cost
and at economical energy requirements. With limited and depleting natural sources, desalination
can supplement some of the critically lacking amounts of water needed for sustainable
development. Its place in the water cycle will be discussed.
The conference will overview the most
recent developments in desalination
technology, its cost and extent of application,
including socio-economic and
environmental issues. It will bring together
research scientists, decision
makers, managers, design engineers
and operators from water companies,
industries, government departments,
consulting firms, research institutes
and universities.
The place of industry, research and
government decision making in this
booming market will be addressed.
Why and how desalination should be
integrated into the national or regional
water management plans, ensuring socio-
economic and environmental benefits, will be the focal point of the conference.
