Conference
The implementation of the revised EU Urban Water Treatment is expected in challenging times. The panel brings together experts from policy, utilities, industry, and engineering to discuss how to turn regulatory pressure into progress. Join us for a reality check on the balance between ambition and affordability, and to explore how sustainable technologies “Made in Europe” can strengthen resilience in times of crisis.

KARL: Current status of financing fourth treatment through extended producer responsibility
Annette Schmitz
The EU Urban Wastewater Directive introduces a fourth treat-ment stage. At least 80% of the costs must be covered by producers – a paradigm shift in financing. Based on a study, the VKU has forecasted the expected costs. How can implementa-tion succeed between polluters and fee payers? A look at figu-res, debates, and perspectives.

Removal and destruction of PFAS from contaminated water streams by adsorption onto activated carbon and subsequent reactivation of the saturated activated carbon
Sylvia Lehmann
Effective removal of PFAS from industrial water streams through adsorption onto granular activated carbon has been demonstrated for the chemical production, waste treatment, and environmental services sectors. Mobile filters prevent leaks and activated carbon loss, thus ensuring the best possible compliance with waste regulations.
