2025 WateReuse Texas Conference: #WRTX2025

WateReuse Texas invites reuse professionals to share their latest research, innovation, and experiences by submitting an abstract or presentation proposal for #WRTX2025: the WateReuse Texas Conference on September 16-18, 2025, in Houston, Texas. The submission deadline is Friday April 18, 2025.

The presentation format can be either of the following:

• 30-minute presentation: An in-depth technical presentation by one or more presenters, typically with 20-25 min for the talk and 5-10 min for Q&A.

• 60-minute presentation or panel: An interactive 60-minute discussion of a single topic by multiple presenters. Panels need to consist of 3-4 panelists (excluding a moderator), representing a diversity of voices across the water sector with at least one utility representative.

Content must be educational and not advocate for any specific technology or company solution so that we can offer TCEQ CEU credits for as many hours as possible.
