Our recent partnership between The University of Manchester, Khalifa University of Science and Technology, and King Abdullah University of Science and Technology have developed graphene-based membranes to take salts out of water. Read the news piece by clicking here.
Congratulations to Levente Cseri for his Best Poster Award at the PERMEA 2019 conference. Levente gave a talk titled “Boosting the permselectivity: GO nanocomposite anion exchange membranes for electrodialysis” (read more here) and presented a poster on “Organic solvent nanofiltration for sustainable organocatalysis”.
Join us at the PERMEA 2019 – Membrane Conference of Visegrad Countries, which will be held from August 26-29, 2019 in Budapest, Hungary. The keynote lecture on ‘Toward Sustainable Organic Solvent Nanofiltration Membranes & Processes’ will cover our research at UoM and KAUST on the potential of biophenols, bamboo fibers, interpenetrating polymer networks and ion-stabilization for achieving high-performance nanofiltration membranes. You can read more about some of these published works in ACS Applied Polymer Materials, ACS Applied Nano Materials, ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering and ACS Nano.
Congratulations to Hai Anh Le Phuong and Levente Cseri for their European Membrane Society Travel Awards! The European Membrane Society provided three awards for PhD students to support their travel to the PERMEA 2019 conference. Out of the three, two were awarded to members of the Szekely Group as a result of successful applications by Hai Anh and Levente. Hai Anh is set to give an oral presentation entitled “Nature-inspired membrane supports for organic solvent nanofiltration” (read more here) while also presenting a poster on “Bio-inspired membranes for improved performance and solvent resistance”. Levente will give a talk titled “Boosting the permselectivity: GO nanocomposite anion exchange membranes for electrodialysis” (read more here) and present a poster on “Organic solvent nanofiltration for sustainable organocatalysis”.
Join us at the 3rd International Symposium On Advanced Materials and Nanotechnology (iSAMN2019), which will be held from August 19-20, 2019 in Putrajaya, Malaysia. The keynote lecture on ‘Nanoengineered Membranes for Advanced Separations in Organic Media’ will cover our research at UoM and KAUST on the potential of biophenols, bamboo fibers, interpenetrating polymer networks and ion-stabilization for achieving high-performance nanofiltration membranes. You can read more about some of these published works in ACS Applied Polymer Materials, ACS Applied Nano Materials, ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering and ACS Nano.
