marine waste water discharge

25-29 October 2010
Langkawi, Malaysia

Call for papers

Website: www.mwwd.org

Submission of abstracts/full papers: 30 January 2010
Notification of acceptance: February 2010
Submission of revised full papers: 30 May 2010

While the first MWWD framework has been directed towards the scientific aspects of the Marine Waste Water Discharges – hence the name – it appeared immediately evident that the conference could meet also a wide range of practical interests, as mentioned in the “Background”.
This has brought to the idea to extend the conference themes beyond the pure scientific themes to all theoretical and practical aspects related to the sealines and to the “use” of the costal environment.

Our themes are continuing therefore to be dedicated to the scientific aspects of the marine environment, to the planning, design, installation and operation of all types of sealines, to the design and construction of coastal works, stabilization and scour protection installations, in general on the whole spread of coastal topics.
We wish that MWWD continues, also in its 2010 issue, to constitute a “site” of aggregation in which scientists, engineers, producers, contractors and operators will present and discuss the developments in their professional activity.

Proposed Themes:

  • Environmental Impact Assessment of near-shore and offshore discharges
  • Planning of sanitation and treatment systems in coastal areas
  • Sealine and diffuser hydraulics
  • Diffuser’s design and optimization for different discharge flows – waste waters, cooling waters, saline waters
  • Dense Jets
  • Intake structures hydraulics and basic design
  • Chlorination systems and their environmental impact
  • Modelling of the discharges – developments in the modelling software
  • Environmental aspects of water discharges: water quality modifications
  • Bacterial pollution
  • Sediment pollution
  • Eutrophication and discharge’s impacts on marine biology, bio-indicators of pollution
  • Water quality management, monitoring and control of environmental pollution due to marine discharges
