Dear Delegates,

On behalf of the organising committee it is my great pleasure welcome you to the 10th International Conference on Biofilm Reactors.

Biofilm processes are central to an increasing number of biological treatment technologies. The past few decades has seen major leaps in the performance and variety of biofilm reactor technology. New biofilm processes have been successfully deployed and in this conference we will learn about these developments along with the latest thinking on emerging technologies, methodologies and biofilm fundamentals.

The 2017 conference follows the format of previous IWA Biofilm Reactor conferences where the programme is designed to blend leading-edge academic research with high quality industrial case study presentations. This format allows for the beneficial exchange of ideas between practitioners and academic researchers. It will thus allow attendees to stay competitive and relevant in their professions, to discover the latest innovations, to explore collaborative opportunities and most importantly to network and make valuable connections.

The programme includes a pre-conference workshop, technical sessions, including six keynote speakers, a dedicated poster session, social events and a technical tour on the last day. We strongly encourage you to interact with delegates and participate in all the activities. The local organisers are committed to ensuring that this conference will meet the excellent standards of previous conferences in the series.

Finally, I would like to thank all those who have made this conference happen including the organising and scientific committees, the IWA and our sponsors for financial support.

We sincerely thank you for joining us and really hope you have a wonderful time at the conference and enjoy your stay in Dublin.

His academic impact has been remarkable with over 250 journal publications, attracting over 16,000 citations to date. Equally important, he has been highly successful in combining leading edge research and development activities with effective industry-relevant collaborations. His close working partnerships with many major water utilities in Australia and internationally (including PUB) have resulted in many beneficial outcomes for the industry and the researchers involved.

Keynote Speakers



Prof Susanne Lackner

Professor at the Technische Universität Darmstadt, Chair of Wastewater Engineering, Institute IWAR

Susanne has long-term experience with biofilm research, eps biofilm reactors for nitrogen removal. She has worked extensively with MABRs and MBBRs for partial nitritation and anammox; her reactor work also includes granular systems (anammox and aerobic granules). Aside from her work around reactor operation and optimization, Susanne’s research has also focused on the basic understanding of microorganisms and their interactions in biofilms by using advanced molecular tools, biofilm imaging and mathematical modeling.
