ANNOUNCEMENTS NEW PROCESSES OF WASTE WATER TREATMENT AND RECOVERY International Research Symposium to be held on September 6-8, 1977, at The Society of Chemical Industry, New Lecture Theatre, 14 Bdgrave Square, London SWlX 8PS, England Papers should be submitted not later than April 30th 1977. The language of the papers and of the symposium will be English. However, interpreting facilities will be made available for the discussion in Russian, Japanese, German and French. Each paper will be presented to the meeting in summary form over a 15-min period, and 15-30 min will be allowed for discussion on each contribution.

Organised jointly by the Water & Environmental Group of the Society of Chemical Industry and the Environment Group of the Chemical Society. NATURE AND PURPOSE OF THE SYMPOSIUM

This international meeting, lasting 3 days, is being organised for the presentation and discussion of original research papers in the field of "New Processes of Waste Water Treatment and Recover),". No formal sub-divisions have been defined within the overall symposium programme, but typical areas of interest would include, e.g. :

PUBLICATIONOF PAPERS The collected papers will be published initially, in bound and printed form, for distribution solely to delegates in advance of the meeting. Discussions of papers presented at the Symposium will be despatched to delegates 1-2 months after the Symposium as a bound volume. The full proceedings will be made available subsequently in book form for worldwide public sale by the end of 1977. There will thus be no delay in open publication of the papers and discussion.

biological and physico-chemical treatment of sewage, and of industrial and other waste waters: methods for recovery and re-use of valuable materials, including, e.g. food values, metals, chemicals and water; the achievement of high quality discharges; analytical monitoring and automatic control of treatment and recovery processes; contributions towards the technical solution of new and/or difficult problems in waste water treatment; research relevant to environmental quality standards.

REGISTRATION

While research on methodology will be apposite, fundamental examinations and exploratory studies will also be of particular relevance to the meeting. Technologies will not need necessarily to have been fully realised, but potential practicality must be evident. SUBMISSION OF PAPERS

Original papers are invited for presentation to this meeting. It is emphasized that reviews will not be acceptable, nor will direct commercially-based descriptive material, since the orientation is entirely towards original research and development. An independent referee procedure will be employed, and final acceptance will be subject to referees" reports.

The Symposium registration fee is £90.00, or £65.00 for members of the Society of Chemical Industry, the Chemical Society and members of associated bodies. This covers receipt of the pre-Symposium volume of papers, the discussions, attendance at the Conference, light refreshments during morning and afternoon breaks, luncheon (excluding alcoholic beverages) and coach transportation between the nominated hotels (see below) and the S.C.I. Lecture Theatre, and value added tax. The Registration Fee does not include accommodation or the cost of the Conference Dinner.
