WELCOME TO PIPE AND SEWER CONFERENCE

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE AND EXHIBITION ON PIPE AND SEWER TECHNOLOGIES

Poorly constructed and uneconomically operated,

leaking urban pipe and sewer networks are major cost

drivers and damage the environment.

In many places around the world water losses are ex-

tremely high and damaged sewers pollute the ground

water. Losses in the district heating and cooling net-

works are also a waste of financial resources and gas

leakages could even lead to serious and fatal accidents.

Many cities suffer from their crumbling and poorly maintained pipe and sewer infrastruc-

ture. The wasted taxpayer’s money could be spent much better in social projects, the

educational system and on the labor market.

In Central Europe (e.g. Germany) water and waste water losses are in the single-digit

percentage area and gas losses are close to zero. This has not always been the case: inten-

sive research and the continuous exchange of experience between universities, industry,

municipalities and the private operators played a large part in this development.

The EITEP Institute set up the international Pipe and Sewer Conference (pasc) and exhibi-

tion in order to further this exchange of experience on an international level. We put this

new event into the same time frame as the established Pipeline Technology Conference

(ptc) in order to benefit from manifold synergies on the side of our exhibitors and network

operators.

Please take a closer look at the following pages and get involved now - send in your

presentation suggestion and reserve your place at the accompanying exhibition. I look

forward to seeing you in Berlin.
