Ms. Ursula Annunziata
United Kingdom


Ursula Annunziata studied Chemistry and Marine Zoology at London University and later received her M.Sc. in Applied Hydrobiology. In 1979 she joined the Technical Division of Houseman Limited, a water treatment company, as worldwide technical liaison, with projects in the West Indies, South Africa and Egypt. She was a leading researcher on the bacterium that causes Legionnaires disease in cooling water systems, writing several articles on the subject.

In the last 20 years she has worked closely in all aspects of membrane technology. Formerly General Sales Manager for the PermaCare Division, Ursula now works for Genesys International Limited, an independent company supplying Technology, Products and Services to the global membrane industry. As a chemist and microbiologist, she has been involved in the operation and optimisation of desalination plants large and small, including the USA and South America, Africa, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.

She has been on the Board of Directors of the European Desalination Society (EDS) for a number of years, and is currently Vice President of the EDS.

"Research, development and innovation of chemicals have enabled membrane systems to sustain high levels of water production at ever reducing costs. As a member of IDA, I would like to apply this knowledge in some small way for the benefit of us all."
