Abstract
Anaerobic technologies have gained increasing importance in recent decades due to the growing emphasis on the circular economy and sustainability, as they offer low-cost treatment while enabling waste-to-resource recovery and biorefinery approaches. In this context, the IWA Anaerobic Digestion conference series is one of the most important international platforms for discussing the latest developments and innovations in the field. The 18th IWA World Conference on Anaerobic Digestion (IWA AD18) was held in Istanbul, Türkiye, from 2 to 6 June 2024. The conference theme, ‘Bridging waste to value through anaerobic digestion’, emphasized the ongoing focus on waste valorization and resource recovery.
