Join us on 27th March at KU Leuven, Belgium, from 9:00 to 14:00, for an in-person workshop exploring advanced material solutions for a sustainable future. This event will highlight the use of sorption techniques to develop innovative approaches for carbon capture through membranes and filtration. Featuring expert talks from Dr. Sean McIntyre, Dr. Anett Kondor, Dr. Ali Khodayari, Dr. Rob Ameloot, and Dr. Wim Tielemans, the workshop will cover topics like ethanol vapour-induced studies, inverse gas chromatography, and molecular dynamics. Gain practical insights and inspiration to drive sustainable advancements in material science.
This workshop also offers invaluable networking opportunities with leading researchers and industry professionals. Engage in meaningful discussions during a coffee break and a networking lunch, while exploring innovative approaches to functional material development. Don’t miss your chance to collaborate and contribute to shaping a sustainable future—register today!
