Date: Thursday, 30th July 2026

Registration: 5:30pm

Start/End: 6:00pm – 7:00pm

Dinner at: 7:15pm

Event type: Technical presentation and networking.

Topic:

A presentation on how new technology is deployed to bring us good quality portable water we all take for granted. Trihalomethanes (THMs) are formed as disinfection byproducts when chlorine or other halogen-based disinfectants react with naturally occurring organic matter (such as decaying vegetation, algae, or humic substances) in water.

THMs are more than a compliance challenge - they are a public health issue.

Pamela will present how THMs are formed, the factors that drive their production, and how regulations compare across Australia and internationally.

Pamela will showcase proven IXOM solutions, including MIEX® resin for preventing THM formation and providing practical pathways for utilities to proactively improve water quality, reduce risk, and stay ahead of future regulatory changes.
