 Dal 21 al 23 luglio prossimi si svolgerà nella sede dell'International Maritime Organization (IMO) a Londra il secondo " International Ballast Water Treatment R&D Symposium". Obiettivo dell'iniziativa è di esaminare l'attuale stato della ricerca nel settore del trattamento delle acque di zavorra, di migliorare la cooperazione tra le nazioni che fanno capo all'IMO su questo tema e di offrire il supporto tecnico e scientifico per lo sviluppo e l'implementazione di normative internazionali relative alla gestione delle acque di zavorra.
