The ninth International biennial Conference on Environmental Science and Technology will present the most recent technological and scientific developments associated with environmental problems, emphasising the synthesis of scientific expertise achieved in individual disciplines of environmental science and technology. This synthesis, in combination with the integration of environmental information with economic and social aspects, is prerequisite for adopting sustainable solutions to the numerous contemporary problems.

In view of the success of the previous Conferences dating back to 1989, the meeting aims to bring together engineers, scientists and other professionals from a number of different countries, involved in environmental research and development activities.
