The EU Water Reuse Regulation in practice: A Focus on Post-Point of Compliance Barriers
Join this webinar on the implementation of the EU Water Reuse Regulation, focusing on applying the multi-barrier approach at distribution and irrigation level, beyond the reclamation facility point of compliance.
This session will bring together experts and practitioners to share insights on the concept of the multi-barrier approach embedded in the regulation to achieve equivalent higher quality class at the irrigation field. Participants will gain an overview of current practices, challenges encountered, and lessons learned from early implementation. The webinar also provides an opportunity for exchange and discussion among stakeholders involved in water reuse across Europe.
The event will be hosted on the WEBEX Platform.
