- Professional associations and expert organizations
The practical part of the Forum is divided into three thematic blocks:
Practical session No. 1: “Territorial Environmental Monitoring Systems” is a session dedicated to regional experiences in creating air monitoring networks and implementing automated control systems.
Practical Session No. 2: “Industrial Ecology and Local Environmental Monitoring Systems for Industrial Facilities” — presentations on the best available technologies and case studies of monitoring systems implementation in production facilities. Representatives of the Scientific and Technical Center “Environment” of the Federal State Budgetary Institution “VNIIM” will share their experience. Mendeleyev, the Center for Environmental Monitoring of the Chelyabinsk Region, PJSC MTS, and IMC Group LLC.
Practical Session No. 3: “Eco-Monitoring of Surface Water, Industrial Discharges, and Effluents” — the final session will be devoted to modern methods of water quality analysis and monitoring of water user activities.
Participation in the forum will allow specialists not only to become familiar with cutting-edge developments but also to directly discuss professional challenges with colleagues and regulators, as well as establish partnerships for the implementation of environmental innovations.
