  BEACON EVENT: Water management within the circular economy. Resource recovery from the water cycle: market, value chains and new perspective for the water utilities and chemical industry

  Organized by: University of Verona, Ministry of Environment, UTILITALIA, Marche Polytechnic University, IRSA-CNR, Horizon2020 SMART-Plant Consortium, International Water Association Resource Recovery Cluster, IWA Italia, EU WssTP, CTS ECOMONDO
  
  Viable and profitable value chains for resources recovered from the water cycle are the bottleneck towards a new circular perspective of water management. The activities in the water cycle are run by utilities, not used to commercially develop products and bringing these to a highly competing .price, quality, service, security of supply- market. The workshop will bring together the main stakeholders and aims to present frameworks that can be used to remove bottlenecks and enable successful resource recovery in other regions in Europe and beyond.
