PLEASE NOTE – BE WARNED

PLEASE NOTE – BE WARNED

It has come to our attention that there is a course run by Knowledge Academy whose venue has not been booked, the presenter has not been confirmed, and potential attendees have not been able to make contact with the organisers.

In the light of this, we strongly suggest that before booking and paying for any conferences and seminars, you verify the credibility of these courses, by contacting the organisers, the presenters, and the course venues to confirm that the courses will actually be held. DO NOT make any payments until you have confirmed the legitimacy of the course.

We have stressed this previously as we have noted that there are many event organisers who are setting out to deliberately defraud potential delegates.



22 - 24 Oct 2025 - Durban

The Landfill and Waste Treatment 2025 Conference & Exhibition

The Landfill and Waste Treatment 2025 Conference & Exhibition will be held at the The Riverside Hotel, Durban.

The theme of the conference is a play on the word “landfill” to indicate that many landfill sites are nearing capacity, or are filling up faster than planned. Hence there is a need to deliberate on the need for landfill sites in the future, and look to waste treatment technologies as alternatives or adjuncts to waste disposal by landfill.

WHY PARTICIPATE
Landfill and Waste Treatment 2025 is a premier event for those involved with waste disposal by landfill, as well as waste treatment technologies. The event will provide delegates with the opportunity to learn about the latest techniques and developments, while providing a forum for the exchange of knowledge and ideas.

This conference will attract decision makers from government and the private sector, prospective users, academics, vendors and suppliers, policy makers and representatives of various national organisations working in the arena of Landfill and Alternative Waste Treatment.

SPONSORSHIP & EXHIBITION
The Landfill and Waste Treatment 2025 Conference and Exhibition has a number of sponsorship opportunities available to businesses and organisations to increase their brand exposure and show their support for the waste management industry. Sponsorship packages range from the exclusive premium packages to a variety of smaller packages, and tailor-made packages can also be discussed.

The Landfill and Waste Treatment 2025 conference exhibition will cater for both outdoor and indoor space. The outdoor space is reserved for premium sponsors although any exhibitors requiring outdoor space can put in a request to the organising committee. The indoor exhibition area consists of 10-12 table stands where manufacturers and professional service providers will be able to showcase products and services to potential clients throughout South Africa.

TIME: 8:00 am – 5:00 pm

Carin Bosman (CBSS) and Nelda Smith (Pretoria University), in association with the Water Institute of South Africa (WISA), have developed a new Training Course in Water Quality Monitoring and Management.

Water Quality Monitoring is essential to ensure Good Water Governance, and the Course therefore addresses the basics of water quality monitoring, including:

the basic sciences (hydrology, geology, and chemistry) of surface and groundwater resources;

the design of a water quality monitoring programme, including monitoring locations, frequencies, and the selection of water quality monitoring variables; ;

the importance of field data collection;

the setting of limit values for various types of water resources;

the interpretation of water quality monitoring results;

the visualisation of water quality monitoring results;

communication of water quality monitoring results to non-expert stakeholders, etc.

An interactive practical session will be conducted as part of the course, during which attendees will take water samples, deliver them to the laboratory, receive the results, and interpret the results in a group setting.
