On behalf of the organizing committee, it is our great pleasure to invite you to 11th Micropol & Ecohazard Conference which will be held from October 20 to 24, 2019 in Seoul, South Korea.

In recent years, there is a growing body of research on emerging micropollutants associated with water, wastewater, surface and groundwater. This conference is dedicated to provide the rich and thought-provoking scientific programs to share and discuss the latest scientific development and technical solutions in monitoring & analysis, fate & transport, ecotoxicity & risk assessment, control & treatment, and prioritization & regulation of emerging micropollutants with water professionals from all over the world.

We are also delighted to host the conference in Seoul, the capital and the largest metropolis of South Korea. Seoul is the city with fascinating blend of ancient and modern architecture, having five UNESCO World Heritage Sites in its neighborhood as well as multiple award-winning modern landmarks, also being the birthplace of K-pop and the Korean Wave.

We hope many of you will join us at the 11th Micropol & Ecohazard Conference 2019 and every participant to enjoy the scientific programs as well as impressive experiences in Seoul.
