IWA Specialized Conference: Biofilms in Drinking Water Systems: from Treatment to Tap. August 23-26, 2015 Arosa, Switzerland
This conference will provide a platform for critical exchange and discussion with focus on quality rather than quantity
Published
Contributions are sought on fundamental studies, applied studies, and studies that bridge between fundamental and applied. Research reports on a range of aspects of biofilms in drinking water treatment, distribution, and quality are solicited. Examples of topics include:
- Biofilms in distribution systems and in-premise plumbing
- Biofilms as hosts for pathogenic organisms,
- Biofilm formation potential of materials and surfaces as a source of nutrition
- Biological stability of water and regrowth during water distribution and water storage
- Biofouling and biocorrosion
- Biological drinking water treatment
- Biofiltration
- Biofilms on membranes: Beneficial use (e.g. in gravity driven membrane filtration or membrane biofilm reactors) and biofouling
- Micropollutants in drinking water: Degradation and production during treatment and distribution
- Management and control of unwanted biofilms
