1445840Engineering Conferences International, Inc.FreemanTravel funds are requested to partially support approximately 10 graduate students and young faculty to participate in the Engineering Conferences International Meeting on Advanced Membrane Technology VI in February 2015 in Sicily, Italy. The meeting is scheduled to have 14 technical sessions covering recent advances in membrane research, development and applications. Some examples include wastewater reclamation, gas and liquid separations and purifications, and energy issues. A poster session is also an integral part of the meeting. The meeting will feature a number of internationally renowned and up and coming researchers. Approximately 130 membrane researchers from all parts of the world are expected to attend, representing industry, government and academia. Separation technology constitutes 50 to 75% of the capital investment in a chemical plant, according to a report of the National Research Council. Membrane technology is an important part of the separation technology. Its usage in the chemical industry is growing due to its versatility and low-energy consumption as compared with other separation processes, such as distillation. Because of the industrial needs for efficient separation technology and the advances in material science, many new membrane materials, processes, and applications are being commercialized. The requested funding will be used for participant support at this meeting to help offset (including room and board) costs for student and young faculty participants.

1445840工程会议国际，公司FreemanTravel资金被要求部分支持约10名研究生和年轻的教师参加工程会议国际会议先进的膜技术VI在2015年2月在西西里，意大利。会议计划举行14场技术会议，涵盖膜研究，开发和应用的最新进展。一些例子包括废水回收，气体和液体分离和净化，以及能源问题。海报会议也是会议的一个组成部分。会议将邀请一些国际知名和未来的研究人员。预计将有来自世界各地的约130名膜研究人员参加，代表工业，政府和学术界。根据国家研究理事会的一份报告，分离技术占化工厂资本投资的50%至75%。膜技术是分离技术的重要组成部分。与其他分离过程（如蒸馏）相比，由于其多功能性和低能耗，其在化学工业中的使用正在增长。由于工业对高效分离技术的需求和材料科学的进步，许多新的膜材料、工艺和应用正在商业化。所要求的资金将用于本次会议的与会者支持，以帮助抵消（包括食宿）学生和年轻教师与会者的费用。
