The Third International Meeting on Environmental Biotechnology and Engineering


21-25 September 2008

Palma de Mallorca, Spain

The main objective of the Third International Meeting on Environmental Biotechnology and Engineering will be to integrate the different technology oriented research (engineering, biotechnology) in such a way that their future action will be based on fundamental research (ecology).
The action on the environment must be interactive with the participation of different disciplines having common objectives:

  • One of the common objectives must be to preserve energy resources and create renewable ones.
  • Other common objective must be the re-use of waste which should be valorized and not seen any more as waste but better as “new resources”.
  • Finally, the last but not the least common objective must be to minimize pollution and discharge to the environment in order to protect its ecology.
  • All this will be achieved only with the development of cleaner and cheaper technologies both on an environmental and an energy point of view as well as with an adequate environmental education and a sustainable development.
