The EU SME Centre in its role as Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) partner in North China is co-organising this conference on solid urban waste management in Rome, Italy.
Solid Urban Waste (SUW) management is a problem of utmost importance when addressing both scientific and social impact. Due to the growing trend of urbanization on a global scale, future forecasts are even more dramatic.
Scientific and technological research can – and must – give a decisive contribution to create a virtuous circle based on the so-called “3Rs” (Reduce, Re-use and Recycle).
These are the issues on which the XXI IUPAC – CHEMRAWN World Conference on Solid Urban Waste Management will focus. IUPAC is strongly committed to exploiting and promoting strategies for developed and developing countries on sustainable chemistry issues.
The aim of IUPAC Conference is to present a comprehensive perspective on the current challenges of Solid Urban Waste management and new directions for their exploitation, especially through a ‘from waste to resource’ approach.
The Conference will bring experts from the urbanized world together, as well as experts from developing countries, giving an opportunity not only to scientists from many disciplines, but also to other organizations, policy makers and groups involved in control and certification, to meet and discuss future trends and action required.
The Conference will be preceded by an Advanced Training Course focused on emerging biotechnology strategies to add value to wastes.
