Water resource management is moving toward integrated solutions that combine desalination, reuse and energy efficiency. Those themes shape investment and operational choices for utilities and technology vendors.
H2 Dates and venue in Liverpool
EDSOC Congress 2027 takes place 4 to 7 May 2027 at the Lex Liverpool Convention Centre. The exhibition runs from 5 to 7 May and the congress website indicates registration will open soon.
H2 Technical focus and agenda highlights
The congress program addresses a wide technical spectrum. Core topics include large-scale desalination, advanced RO and thermal processes, resource recovery and circular water economy concepts. Membrane development, fouling mitigation and mine water treatment are also listed among session themes.
Energy and sustainability threads appear across sessions with attention to renewable-powered desalination, decarbonization strategies and energy recovery systems. Digitalisation topics include digital twins, AI and big data applications for plant optimisation.
H2 Exhibition and practical timeline
The trade exhibition runs alongside the technical program from 5 to 7 May. Exhibitors present membrane modules, brine valorisation solutions, energy recovery systems and monitoring technologies. Sponsor tiers and exhibitor services are detailed in the public conference information.
H2 How to prepare B2B prospecting at EDSOC Congress 2027
-
Map target roles. Focus on regulators, plant operators and R&D leads for membrane or energy integration offers.
-
Package value propositions as technical cases. Provide performance metrics on recovery rates, energy per cubic metre and lifecycle considerations for reuse projects.
-
Offer pilot frameworks. Short, measurable pilot proposals reduce procurement friction and improve follow-up conversations.
-
Provide compliance and environmental documentation. Sessions cover brine disposal, PFAS and environmental monitoring so have evidence of environmental impact and monitoring plans.
-
Schedule meetings in advance. Reach out to project leads and system integrators to secure time during the exhibition days.
H2 Why this matters for suppliers and policy actors
EDSOC Congress 2027 gathers the technical threads that influence procurement and regulatory choices. For technology suppliers in membranes, energy recovery or water reuse, the congress is an opportunity to align product specifications with emerging operational requirements and policy trends in the UK market.
H2 Closing note and official link
If your priority is to convert technical capability into project opportunities, focus pre-event on pilot proposals and compliance evidence. Full details on program, exhibitors and registration are available at https://congress.edsoc.com/.
