Industrial & Hazardous Waste Management Conference
Health, Safety & Environment (HSE) | Conference | 08 Nov 09 - 09 Nov 09
Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Conference Overview
To reduce their reliance on oil revenues, many GCC countries have embarked on programmes of industrial diversification (AME Info). Multinational companies have invested in the development of petrochemical complexes, fertilizer plants, refineries and chemical plants. These industrial activities are major generators of hazardous waste (GEO 2000, UNEP). In relation with the expected increased development and industrialization, Abu Dhabi Environment Agency (EAD) is expecting a large increase in the generation of wastes, and there is need for more facilities for the treatment and disposal of hazardous waste in particular (Abu Dhabi Environment Strategy, 2008 - 2012).
The increasing environmental awareness, and industrial boom are key factors driving the corporate attention towards hazardous waste management as part of their sustainability policies, hence providing enormous opportunities in the Middle East. Know what and where these opportunities are and understand the policies, legislation, monitoring and control for these projects in the Middle East.
Conference Highlights
Pollution and escalating costs of hazardous waste management are some of the serious concerns faced by the waste
management industry today. Get answers to these pressing questions:
- What are the latest technological developments and advancements to help combat these problems?
- What are some of the key challenges and problems faced by the industrial sector?
- What is the waste management industry doing to cope with the rapid industralisation leading to more industrial &
- hazardous waste production?
- What are the trends in Middle East’s waste management?
Hear the answers to these questions at the Conference as well as successful experiences in the waste minimization and recycling programs. Our panel of specially invited guest speakers will reveal the advances in hazardous industrial waste treatment technologies and compare the differences in industrial waste management practices between USA, Europe and this part of the world, and knowledge that can be transferred.
