The organisers of the WWEM 2010 environmental monitoring event have arranged a new conference targeted at the water, food-and-beverage, manufacturing, processing and environmental sectors.
The conference, entitled 'Laboratory Sustainability and Efficiency', will address the key issues facing commercial laboratories in the new low-carbon, post-recession era and will be most relevant to analytical staff.
The laboratory conference will be repeated on both days and will be chaired by Dr Jeff Llewellyn, president of the British Measurement and Testing Association (BMTA).
It will feature: 'UKAS and What Accreditation Can Do For Your Laboratory' by Debbie Hudson; 'UKAS Proficiency Testing and Inter-Laboratory Comparisons' by Matt Williams of NPL; 'Samples Transportation' by Justin Hayday of Citysprint; 'The Production of ISO Guide 34 Accredited Gas Calibration Standards and Evaluation of their Stability' by K D Cleaver of BOC; 'Sampling of Environmental Water' by Hazel Davidson of Alcontrol; and 'A Waste Water Data Management System That Provides Real Advantage' by Alex Hardie of Exova.
