Seminario INMA-Impulso: “Exploring inorganic microporous membranes: applications in Sake and Food industries”.- Martes 12 de marzo
El martes 12 de marzo de 2024 tendrá lugar una nueva sesión del ciclo de conferencias INMA-Impulso, un ciclo de conferencias que trata de acercar la investigación más puntera a la sociedad.
La próxima sesión titulada: “Exploring inorganic microporous membranes: applications in Sake and Food industries” correrá a cargo de la Dra. Izumi Kumakiri de la Yamaguchi University.
Resumen (en inglés):
The chemical industry is a significant contributor to CO2 emissions. As separation processes occupy a significant portion of energy consumption, substituting conventional distillation with membrane separation can drastically reduce the energy utilized by this particular industry.
Inorganic microporous membranes represent a relatively new class of membranes, which accelerated developments starting in the early 2000s. For example, A-type zeolite membrane was commercialized by a Japanese company, named Mitusi-ship engineering, based on the method developed at Yamaguchi University.
In this talk, we will look into the diverse applications and requirements of such membranes. In addition to the history of zeolite membranes, the current state of the art in development of microporous carbon membranes will be shared.
La conferencia tendrá lugar elmartes 12 de marzo a las 12 horas en la Sala de Conferencias del Edificio I+D de la Universidad de Zaragoza.
