Preliminary Program subject to change
02E07 Novel Adsorbent Materials and Structures I
OverviewTraditional adsorbent materials are zeolite, activated carbon, activated alumina, and silica gel etc. made in bead and pellet structures and forms for fixed bed separation process. Proposal of oral presentations are invited on the topics devoted to, but are not limited to, the area of development of innovative adsorbent materials, structures and forms that lead to new process configuration, new separation applications and significant improvement of separation efficiency, etc.
