3rd International Workshop on
Membrane Distillation and Innovating Membrane Operations in Desalination and Water Reuse
md-sorrento2023
April 23 rd - 26 th , 2023
Hilton Sorrento Palace hotel & Conference Center
Sorrento (NA), Italy
Membrane contactors represent an emerging technology that can lead to significant innovation in processes and products, thus offering new opportunities in designing, rationalizing, and optimizing innovative productions. Among the different operations, membrane distillation (MD) and related technologies represent a powerful tool to improve current production processes with fundamental benefits in terms of process efficiency and product quality.
Following the first conference on “Membrane Distillation” held in Rome in May 1986 (Chairman Prof. Enrico Drioli, CNR-ITM), the International Workshop on Membrane Distillation and Related Technologies held on 9-12 October 2011, and the 2nd International Workshop on Membrane Distillation and Innovating Membrane Operations in Desalination and Water Reuse held on July 1 - 4, 2015, the 3 rd International Workshop on Membrane Distillation and Innovating Membrane Operations in Desalination and Water Reuse will be held on April 23 - 26, 2023 in Sorrento (Sorrentine Peninsula near the Bay of Naples), Italy, organized (as the previous ones) by the Institute on Membrane Technology (CNR-
ITM).
All relevant membrane contactors operations and their relevant aspects (from new membranes synthesis to modelling of the transport mechanisms, combined with alternative energy sources and applications) will be discussed.
The Workshop's purpose is to share the latest research works and technological advances in the field and its application areas. A compelling program featuring an interesting line-up of international speakers presenting in-depth information about the latest technologies and products will characterize the event. The event will represent also an excellent opportunity for networking, collaborations and
partnerships among scientist coming from different areas of expertise.
Oral presentations at the Workshop are by invitation only from the Committee.
A Poster session with contributions presented by researchers and students to illustrate leading-edge research to an international audience will be available at the conference site. Prizes will be assigned for the best poster presentations given by early career researchers and students.
