The 9th International Meuse Symposium will take place on Tuesday, September 12th, 2023, in Liège (Belgium).
We will organize the 9th edition of the International Meuse Symposium together with the “Samenwerkingsverband Schone Maaswaterketen” to broaden the topics towards water quality – which has been mentioned by the participants earlier. Samenwerkingsverband Schone Maaswaterketen (partners for clean Meuse water chain, https://www.schonemaaswaterketen.nl/) focuses in particular on organic micropollutants - medicines and industrial chemicals.
