International Symposium On Bioremediation And Sustainable Environmental Technologies

The Bioremediation and Sustainable Environmental Technologies Symposium incorporates topics beyond those addressed by its predecessor, the In Situ and On-Site Bioremediation Symposium. The Symposium’s new name and revised and expanded scope reflect bioremediation’s maturity and new directions in environmental research and application. The Symposium chairs and steering committee  designed the program for scientists, engineers, regulators, site managers, and other environmental professionals, representing universities, government agencies, consultants, and R&D and service firms from around the world. Bioremediation and related technologies continue as core areas, but the program also encompasses green and sustainable remediation, sustainable site management strategies, emerging contaminants, vapor intrusion, and the environmental impacts of biology-based alternative energy production. Organized and presented by Battelle, the Symposium will be conducted June 27–30, 2011, in Reno, Nevada. Sponsors are other leading organizations active in site investigation and remediation. The Preliminary Program lists presentations scheduled as of January 28. The Final Program and abstracts of the presentations will be posted at this Web site by June 13.
