This year’s International Water Mist Conference will take place in Berlin, Germany, on 23rd and 24th October. The venue will be the Ameron Hotel Abion Spreebogen Waterside. As of today, the programme, which features a manifoldness of topics, is online. Part of the event, as has become kind of a tradition, will be a panel discussion entitled: “Grenfell, Notre Dame – How can Water Mist Systems prevent loss of lives, property and jobs?” Organizer of the event is as always the International Water Mist Association (IWMA). The first day of the conference will be all about systems in practice and will include the discussion. The second day of the conference will mainly be dedicated to research and testing. The flyer containing the agenda can be downloaded from the IWMA webpage and also from the conference webpage which is accessible directly via www.iwma.net. Please note that the early bird period will end on 15th July. The registration period will end on 18th October.
The 18th edition of the International Water Mist Conference (IWMC) that will take place in London, UK, on the 19th and the 20th of September 2018 at the Grange City Hotel, has just announced that the call for papers was released and sponsors and exhibitors can start booking table tops. The deadline for the abstract is one the 16th of April, while the submission for the ‘IWMA Young Talent Award 2018 / Master’ is on the 30th of April. The speakers will be notified about acceptance at the same time with the activation of the conference webpage on the 15th of May. The conference programme will be published on the 2nd of July and on the 16th the early bird period ends. The final versions of the presentations are due on the 15th of August. Those wishing to submit a paper are asked to use the specially developed template, so that it can ensure that all necessary details are included. “The Call for Papers, the abstract template as well as the sponsorship application forms can all be downloaded from the IWMA webpage or obtained from the IWMA head office in Hamburg,” announced Bettina McDowell, IWMA General Manager. The International Water Mist Association was founded in 1998 and is the first association of its kind dedicated exclusively to water mist firefighting and related technologies. It supports the continued development, research, and applications engineering of generic water mist systems. Its members are manufacturers, distributors, insurance companies, scientific institutes, approval bodies, fire departments, as well as private persons. The intention of the Association is to provide a forum for experts, manufacturers, users, and fire professionals active in the field of water mist fire suppression. Water mist systems offer environmental advantages such as the notably less water consumed by it compared to the traditional sprinkler systems, not contributing to ozone depletion or global warming, and not producing toxic by-products when applied to a fire.
On The 15th of November, the first Water Mist Seminar will be held in Poland. The event will take place at the Galaxy Hotel in Cracow and will promote water mist technology to the attendees. In charge of organising this event is the International Water Mist Association. The Association was first founded in 1988 and focuses on the technology related to the water-mist firefighting and other related areas. With the announcement of the Cracow event, the webpage connected to the seminar has been launched and can be accessed through the IWMA homepage. Tickets are available for the Water Mist Seminar and the event is free for delegates wanting to learn more about this fire suppression technology. The International Water Mist Association works to promote the developments that take place in the water mist fire suppression sector, the association promotes this fire suppression technology on a worldwide scale and offer seminars like the one that will be held in Cracow around the world. It is important for the International Water Mist Association to offer these seminars to delegates in order to educate and inform those wanting to know more about the new ways that they can use water mist technology. The Association is also promoting the new equipment that is now available for fire suppression. The Water mist systems are able to use smaller water droplets and thinner pipes while still being effective, this means that fire suppression systems are smaller and more discreet, improving safety when installed without being an obtrusive feature of a building or construction project. During the one-day event at the Galaxy Hotel in Cracow, a collection of guest speakers will give detailed explanations about how water mist works as a fire suppression technique. The speakers at the November event will also discuss installation and maintenance requirements of the systems. The Water Mist Seminar is a great opportunity for the delegates that attend the event to improve and update their knowledge about the standards, guidelines and approvals of these safety solutions. There will also be an exhibition to accompany the seminar.
