Showcase your best practice, latest innovation, cutting-edge
technology or industry-leading research at Europe's
premier event for biosolids and bioresource professionals.
The Call for Abstracts deadline has now passed, however, we are still accepting poster submissions.
The biosolids and bioresources sector is at a pivotal moment. Faced with tightening regulations, landbank pressures and public scrutiny, the industry is responding with innovation at every level — from advanced thermal conversion technologies to circular economy integration and resource recovery. The Industrial Emissions Directive is reshaping the compliance landscape, but there are conflicts to resolve with health, safety and process. There has surely never been a greater need to debate these hot and emerging topics, for collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and future-focused thinking.
To mark the 30th anniversary of the European Biosolids & Bioresources Conference, we invite professionals, researchers, and strategic thinkers to submit abstracts that reflect the sector’s evolving challenges and transformative opportunities.
Do you have something to share? We would love to hear from you!
