Welcome to our blog!

Hi there and welcome to our new blog site for the Water Sciences Group at the University of Birmingham. We are a group of researchers who are interested in all things watery from ecology to water chemistry to hydrology and on! We hope that this page will be a place where we can discuss issues and advances in the science, provide some details of the research that we are doing and keep everyone informed of conferences, publications and such like that are coming up. Please feel free to post as much or as little as you want.

4th Developments in Water Treatment and Supply Conference

The UK Network on Potable Water Treatment and Supply encourages multidisciplinary research, education and development in the field of potable water treatment. Following the success of the previous three conferences, the purpose of this two day meeting is to promote the exchange of the latest information and developments in water resources,treatment and supply. Attended by over 100 delegates, the conference will provide an excellent opportunity for scientists,engineers, regulators and researchers working in all aspects of potable water provision to debate key issues.

The theme of the conference is applied research and development in all aspects of water treatment and supply. Abstracts are welcomed in any of the following areas:
○ Novel treatment processes
○ Distribution systems
○ Energy
○ Monitoring
○ Emerging contaminants
○ Sludge treatment
