ABOUT CONFERENCE
Subject
Membrane techniques have found a wide range of applications in environmental protection. Thus, the review and coordination current researches are aimed and justified. The active participation of industrial partners who apply membrane processes into the industrial practice is also highly desired. It has all been revealed by a series of membrane conferences regularly organized since 1995.
The aim of the conference is to sum up the recent progress in application of membrane processes mainly in environmental protection, but also in other branches of industry.
The main topics discussed during conference’s sessions are:
- production and characteristics of membranes due to their further application in environmental protection,
- modelling of membrane processes and other engineering concepts,
- desalination of water and wastewater with the use of membrane techniques,
- membranes in water and wastewater treatment technology,
- hybrid membrane processes,
- pervaporation, membrane distillation and gas separation,
- fuel cells,
- application of membranes in biotechnology,
- membranes in environmental monitoring,
- membrane reactors,
- membrane removal of micropollutants from various environmental species.

The contributions can be presented as oral presentations or posters. The Conference’s Scientific Committee holds a right to change the form of presentation submitted by the participant. Both posters and oral presentations should be prepared in English, while the language of presentation used during conference sessions and discussions may be either English (recommended) or Polish. The time predicted for one oral presentation is 15 minutes (including discussion). The remote participants are asked to use their own IT devices (computer, tablet) with sufficient Internet access, microphone and, eventually, camera. Posters should be prepared in the form of Power Point presentation (or other relevant format) comprising of max. 4 slides, which should contain following data: title of the presentation, name of authors, aim of the work, short description of materials and methods involved, most important results, conclusions and, if relevant, acknowledgements (the exemplary template of the poster presentation will be available at the conference’s website). The poster presentation file should be uploaded via the conference’s website using the dedicated bookmark - Abstracts. The file should be named with the name of the first author and, eventually, with the number, if the author presents more than one poster. Every poster presentation will be rearranged into 1 page pdf file containing compilation of 4 slides, which will be shared among conference participants several days before the conference start. Poster session will be organized on 10th of June 2021 (Thursday) in the afternoon. During the session, every poster will be displayed for 1 min (all 4 slides). After the display of every poster, a short time for the discussion with the author is predicted.
