WELCOME TO ICEM’09/DECOM’09<br />
We welcome you to the Twelfth <str<strong>on</strong>g>Internati<strong>on</strong>al</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>C<strong>on</strong>ference</str<strong>on</strong>g> <strong>on</strong> Envir<strong>on</strong>mental Remediati<strong>on</strong> and Radioactive Waste<br />
Management (ICEM’09). It is a global informati<strong>on</strong> exchange, featuring engineering and scientific soluti<strong>on</strong>s to<br />
envir<strong>on</strong>mental problems. More than 600 scientists, engineers, managers, project directors, business representatives,<br />
equipment vendors and government officials from more than 30 countries are expected to attend the c<strong>on</strong>ference, held this<br />
year in Liverpool, United Kingdom, at the Liverpool Arena and C<strong>on</strong>venti<strong>on</strong> Center (ACC).<br />
<str<strong>on</strong>g>The</str<strong>on</strong>g> Nuclear Engineering and the Envir<strong>on</strong>mental Engineering Divisi<strong>on</strong>s of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers<br />
(ASME) have joined forces with the Instituti<strong>on</strong> of Mechanical Engineers and the Nuclear Institute (NI) for ICEM’09 and<br />
DECOM’09. <str<strong>on</strong>g>The</str<strong>on</strong>g> c<strong>on</strong>ference and exhibiti<strong>on</strong> offer a unique opportunity to foster cooperati<strong>on</strong> and establish c<strong>on</strong>tacts with<br />
participants from many countries. <str<strong>on</strong>g>C<strong>on</strong>ference</str<strong>on</strong>g> participants will be able to speak directly with peers who are reporting new<br />
research, initiating and managing envir<strong>on</strong>mental projects, establishing nati<strong>on</strong>al and internati<strong>on</strong>al regulati<strong>on</strong>s and applying<br />
new methods and equipment. ICEM’09 is expected to feature 350 technical papers, research presentati<strong>on</strong>s and discussi<strong>on</strong>s<br />
of field applicati<strong>on</strong>s. A diverse group of internati<strong>on</strong>al organizati<strong>on</strong>s will be exhibiting related technologies and services.<br />
We have organized this Final Program so you can easily find additi<strong>on</strong>al details <strong>on</strong> the technical program and ways to<br />
participate. Also included is a listing of Exhibitors, Sp<strong>on</strong>sors and their services, and the technical abstracts. Please take a<br />
look inside for more details. We are sure you will find something of interest. We hope that you have a successful meeting<br />
and welcome to Liverpool!<br />
