The Membrane Technology Forum (formerly Practical Membrane Technology Short Course) is organized jointly by Filtration & Membrane World and Dairy Foods Magazine. This Forum will cover fundamentals of membrane technology, fouling and cleaning as well as provide updates on new technologies and applications in food processing, functional ingredients, bioactives, biotechnology, process waste water, and biofuels. Because much of the commercial membrane application information is NOT available through open literature, this Forum is a great resource for processors looking for training of their engineers, chemists and technicians. In addition, the Membrane Technology Forum will provide participants with the latest technology updates and new filtration methods in processing industries.
