Commenting on Palm Water’s participation in the event, Dr. Imad Haffar, Managing Director of Palm Water, said: “We are delighted to be associated with the IDA organization and actively participating in the World Congress 2009. It is our privilege to partner with an event that will bring together the leading names working in the field of water desalination around the world under one roof. The IDA serves as an international platform that addresses major issues regarding water desalination in the world today. We take immense pride in associating with them and showcasing our state-of-the-art facilities that provide quality solutions to our valued customers in various locations in Dubai, and in being part of this unique Congress.”
