The International Workshop on Membrane in Kobe (iWMK) is an annual event hosted by the Center for Membrane and Film Technology, Kobe University (MaFTech center), with the aim at academic exchanges and discussions on today’s advanced membrane research and technology.
The iWMK2017 will be held at the Integrated Research Center of Kobe University. By the chance MaFTech center celebrates its 10th anniversary this year, the iWMK2017 will be largest iWMK ever, with the participation of totally 12 membrane research units from 8 different countries. We believe the iWMK2017 will provide a wider spectrum of exchanges for membrane researchers, a great learning opportunity for students, as well as a diverse networking place for academia and industry.
At iWMK2017, we are greatly honored to have 11 overseas universities and institutes participated. Including Kobe University, all participants are as the follows.
- Chung Yuan University (Taiwan)
- Hangyang University (Korea)
- Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Hong Kong)
- Institut Européen des Membranes (France)
