The conference dealt with various physicochemical methodologies for water and wastewater treatment research projects that were jointly sponsored by US EP A and Poland. The great interest expressed by the participants led the organizers to expand the scope of the second conference, which was also held in Poland in September 1979. The third and enlarged symposium was again successfully held in 1981 in Lublin, Poland. At that time the participating scientists and engineers expressed their desire to broaden the coverage as well as the title of the conference series. The International Committee, ap- proved the title "Chemistry for the Protection of the Environment" and designated that date of the fourth conference, CPE IV, which was convened in September 1983 at the Paul Sabatier University in Toulouse, France, and was hosted and arranged by Prof. A. Verdier. This conference series included participants from various government agencies, academia, and the private sector, representing industrialized countries as well as emerging nations, both the East and West in an independent, non politica! forum. The central goals of CPE are to improve technology transfer and scientific dialogue, thereby leading to a better comprehension of and solution to a broad spectrum of environ- mentally related problems. The fifth conference was held in September 1985 at the Catho- lic University in Leuven, Belgium. It was hosted by Profs. A. Van Haute and G. Alaerts. CPE V covered topics dealing with treatment technologies and phenomena related to haz- ardous waste and the utilization of fossil fuels. It provided an opportunity for interdiscipli- nary discussions and encouraged the exchange of ideas among international specialists from diverse fields and backgrounds. Under the leadership of Profs. Mentasti and Sarzanini and with the assistance of Dr. Gennero, CPE VI, was held in 1987 at the University of Turin in Italy. Over 150 selected scientific papers and posters were presented to an audience of specialists from 32 nations. This assemblage comprised in equal measure scientists from Europe, the New World, and deve1oping nations. CPE VII, was convened at the Catholic University in Lublin, Poland in 1989. The exchange of information by approximately 200 scientists and engineers made this a memorable scientific occurrence. The scientific committee selected presenters of high in- tellectual and technical merit. The distinguished participants of CPE VII included Po- land's Minister and Deputy Minister for Environmental Protection, U.S. Scientific Council, Israel's Deputy Minister of the Environment, presidents and vice presidents of V vi Preface five universities, representatives of the Academies of Sciences for Czechoslovakia, France, Italy, Poland, and the U.S.S.R., as well as many department heads and acclaimed scientists. CPE VIII was scheduled to convene in Budapest, Hungary in September 1991. But due to international administrative difficulties it was moved to Lublin. Despite this Iast m- inute change of venue, the scientific meeting was voted an outstanding success by the par- ticipants. One of the key note speakers was Dr.Gilbert S. Jackson, Senior Environmental Engineer for Latin America and The Caribbean of The U.S. Agency for International De- velpment. Another was Debra A.Jacobson, Counsel to The Committee on Energy and Commerce ofThe U.S.Houce ofRepresentatives, Washington, D.C. The technical presen- tation were original and informative, the major topics included chemical/physical/biologi- cal/treatment technologies, monitoring modeling and risk assessment. There were over 120 attendees and some 90 scientific oral and poster presentations. Through CPE Interna- tional Committee, Dr. Hartstein ofU.S. Dept. ofEnergy, had the proceedings published in the USA CPE IX held in September 1993 in Alexandria, Cairo/Luxor Egypt and included a joint conference with Dr. Ahmed Hamza and Dr. James Gallup, EPA/U.S.AID's Fourth International Symposium on Industry in the Developing World. The issues covered were an extremely successful workshop on industrial pollution prevention and clean technolo- gies plus cooperation and institutional issues. It too was deemed a great success, highly in- formative by the attendees. The multi-disciplined technical group from 27 countries and international (organization affiliated with the global environmental movement) were a captive like audience aboard a Nile River Crusier. This atmosphere promoted free, open exchanges and dialogues between ali the attendees. Selected papers were published in a volume by the High Institute of Public Health, Alexandria, Egypt. CPE X the 20th anniversary meeting was held in the city of its birth, Lublin, Poland. The spirit of this 20th anniversary not only permeated the program and the international group of experts but was reflected in the various folk music festival, folk dancing and so- cial/cultural programs. Some of the major benefits for the participants were technology transfer and exchange of novel, innovative and alternative treatment methods and informa- tion about activities in other countries related to environmental problems. The meeting was enhanced by the participation of large delegations from both The Peoples Republic of China and the Taiwan Chinese Republic, with papers published under title "Chemistry for the Protection of the Environment, 2" in Environmental Science Research Series, by Ple- num Press. The XI CPE was held in Cairo, Egypt and on the Nile between Luxor and Assuan, including a site visit on the Assuan Dam. Interesting and informative papers and posters were presented on the following topics: adsorption, analytical methods, chemicall biologi- cal/ treatment, groundwater studies, ion exchange, modeling, risk assessment, sludge treat- ment, waste minimization, innovative technology, acid rain, and for the first time during CPE conferences on ISO 14001 - environment management and quality systems. Selected papers are published in this volume. The next CPE XII is scheduled to be held in China just before the end of this millen- nium - in autumn 1999. Prof. Cao Zhihong of Nanjing Institute of Soil Sciences will be a host of that conference. We hope to attract even more attention of scientists from the Asia countries. L. Pawlowski, M. A.
