12th International Conference on
Wetland Systems for Water Pollution Control
Venice (Italy), 4-8 October 2010

 

In 1999 the Italian Section of the IWA Specialist Group on the Use of Macrophytes in Water Pollution Control was established. This group is collecting data (process, design criteria, plant utilization, removal efficiency, economic and legislative aspects, etc.) from existing plants operating in Italy. Since the 1980’s over one thousand Constructed Wetlands (CWs), both free water and subsurface (horizontal and vertical) flow systems, have been realized in Italy. Most of the facilities are located in the northern and central part of the country.

The Italian section of our IWA Specialist group is committed to conducting a successful event for the 2010 conference. This commitment is supported by the key entities in CWs research and practice in Italy including all the involved Universities and others: University of Padua, University of Venice, University of Catania , University of Pisa, University of Ferrara, University of Florence, Polytechnic of Bari, ENEA, CNR, IRIDRA Srl, PAN Srl.

The Steering Committee is very pleased to welcome you to participate in the 12th IWA Specialist Group Conference on Wetland Systems for Water Pollution Control. The conference will be held in the city of Venice, Italy, from 4 to 8 October 2010.

We are looking forward to meeting you in October 2010, 24 years later the first specialist conference held in Chattanooga in 1988, with 32 years of history full of successful events in amazing and pleasant locations, offering Venice as one of the most fascinating spots of our country and a perfect environment for the wetlands specialist group.
