VESI Environmental is delighted to be attending the 9th WETPOL Conference taking place from 13th-17th September 2021, organised by BOKU University Vienna, Austria. WETPOL 2021 is a full virtual event. The conference programme will focus on process-based topics on pollutants dynamics in various types of wetlands including recent advances in the following areas:
• Biogeochemical cycling of carbon and nutrients
• Carbon sequestration and greenhouse gas emissions
• Wetland plants ecophysiology and invasiveness
• Impact of climate change on wetland systems
• The role of wetlands in pollutant management at the catchment scale
• Attenuation of diffuse pollution in wetlands
• Behaviour of priority and emerging pollutants
• Molecular and microbial advances related to pollutant fate, disposal and removal in wetlands
• Advances is modelling for process understanding and design
• Increase process understanding for TW types, e.g. Evaporative willow systems, Sludge treatment wetlands, Intensified wetlands, Microbial electrochemical wetlands resources recovery from wetlands
• Role and functioning of wetlands and other nature-based solutions in urban settings
