International Conference on Innovations in Sustainable Water and Wastewater Treatment Systems (ISWATS), at Pune

[SAURABH ARUN KALE]

Water is a pressing issue in current times. The increase in the urban population, limiting natural resources and improper water management has increased the need for proper water management. The Indo-European partnership for research and innovation has been devised with the aim to bring good practices and technologies in the sector of water management. The idea is to bring together skilled agencies including research organizations, universities, NGOs and SMEs from India and European Union (EU) to share their expertise and set examples in water treatment, wastewater treatment, recycle and reuse, which would serve as models for similar scenarios across India and the globe. Four projects have been sanctioned under the partnership – Eco India, NaWaTech, SARASWATI and SWINGS.

This conference is an international event attracting water professionals and organizations from across the world working towards sustainable water and wastewater treatment systems. The strategic objectives of the Conference are to exchange knowledge, technologies, guidelines and tools for
implementation and operation among academia and public authorities, skilled service providers and SMEs, enabling research partnerships and creating favorable environments for the application of treatment systems and technologies for sustainable water / wastewater treatment, reuse and recycle.
The conference will include presentations of findings from four projects supported under the Framework of India – European Union Science & Technology Cooperation project in water technology and management by Department of Science and Technology, Government of India and the European Commission. Conference program includes keynote address by Eminent speakers from India and Europe, oral and poster presentation and field visit to demonstration site implemented under the framework of India – European Union Science & Technology Cooperation Project (NaWaTech).
