Tzahi Cath (CEE) and Kim Williams (CH) hosted a Membrane Research Workshop at Mines on Aug. 26 bringing together faculty and groups on campus conducting research focused on membrane separation processes. As many as 25 faculty members discussed the science and applied domains pertinent to their research with the goal of identifying opportunities for collaboration and program development. The workshop concluded with a group discussion on relevant topics, including possible collaborative proposals, including potential NSF/STC, additional ways to promote dialogue and collaborations, strategic off-campus collaborators, and the new NSF and DOE focus and upcoming funding opportunities in the area of energy-water-food nexus.
