Bioremediation Symposium
University of New South Wales - Sydney
7 June 2023
In this one day symposium, following the successful inaugural bioremediation symposium in 2022, local and international experts will gather to share knowledge and develop strategies for remediation practitioners and clients in Australia and New Zealand to benefit from integrating biological processes into their site clean-up ambitions. Encompassing a broad spectrum of contaminants and contaminated matrices, the event will consist of keynote presentations, short case study presentations and interactive workshops, followed by networking drinks.
