This workshop includes synthesis and properties of polymeric and inorganic membranes. It will cover the most important inorganic membrane types with an emphasis on transport properties of single- and multi-layer structures. The polymer membrane portion will provide an overview on material selection and fabrication techniques for production of polymeric membranes. The structures and separation properties of a variety of membranes for microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, reverse osmosis, gas separation will be presented. If workshop facilities allow, there will be a practical demonstration of membrane casting as well as opportunities to participate. After taking the workshop, participants will be able to quickly evaluate the design and viability of supported membrane concepts. The workshop is of interest for researchers, students, teachers, and project managers. It will be slow- paced with much participant interaction.
