  7th IWA World Congress on Water Reclamation and Reuse (REUSE 09)

• Brisbane, Australia 21-25 September 2009

 Organisation

IWA International Water Association

  Presentation

• In recent times, the coalescence of many different pressures - population growth, increasing urbanisation, drought, reduced run-off - has put a major strain on water supply infrastructure globally. The level of water abstraction is reaching its natural limits and this calls for a dramatic shift in our water utilisation concepts. The traditional "linear society" is not a sustainable solution and the "circular society" has to become the new standard.
• To discuss these issues and more we invite you to Brisbane in 2009. This conference will offer you a high-quality oral and poster program, and to achieve this we need a strong input from you. The organising and program committees are eager to receive your papers. The program will have a strong focus on the interaction between practice and research and will present excellent opportunities to share and exchange knowledge and expertise. You will also see fi rst hand one of the largest water recycling schemes worldwide. So join us in a stunning location to discuss the latest issues affecting water reclamation and reuse worldwide.
