The IDA Young Leaders Program was officially launched at the 2009 World Congress in Dubai. The goals of this exciting initiative are to help promote opportunities in the industry, support career advancement, and provide a forum for communication and the exchange of ideas among young professionals and the industry at large. The YLP is open to any IDA member 35 years of age or under.
At its heart are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which are an urgent call for action by all countries - developed and developing - in a global partnership. They recognize that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, water and sanitation, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth – all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests. join us in this discussion.
Learn about the latest advcements and how wave powered desalination is pushing for new standards of sustainability.
Let’s discuss about the energy efficiency and inefficiencies in Desalination and how to reduce the carbon footprint.
Open discussion on technical and economic feasibility of brine mining, stimulated by progress in Saudi Arabian pilot aimed at extracting high purity sodium chloride for the chlor-alkali industry.
Join me for a round table discussion on how the next generation of desalination systems may solve SDG6.
At this round table we will discuss about state-of-the-art thermal desalination and their hybrids with other processes to improve overall perfromance. Panel will also shed light on performance evaluation of integrated desalination plants when operated with assorted form of energies.
Biofouling is one of the biggest pain points in desalination. Let’s discuss how to prevent, mitigate and deal with biofouling.
Let’s discuss your plan short, mid and long term. What actions have you taken that will have a positive impact towards your career growth? What seems to work what doesn’t. Let’s share our experiences with one another.
Next generation of chemicals leading to environmentally friendly desalination and higher plant availability.
Let’s review the importance of minerals in drinking water and new techniques for remineralization.
Artificial intelligence enables operational teams at treatment facilities to do more with less. By pairing operators with AI, facilities are able to get predictive performance analysis and actionable recommendations on things like where to adjust a set point to lower energy consumption or when is the best time to service an asset, like conducting a membrane cleaning. AI empowers teams with the latest plant data so they can make better operational decisions, reducing risks and costs, as well as a plant’s overall carbon footprint.
