Welcome from
the chair

Dear Membrane Researchers,

I am pleased to announce the 1^st online International Conference on Membranes (IOCMBS 2027), which will take place from 22-23 June 2027, and on behalf of the Organizing Committee, I would like to invite you cordially to participate in it.

This online forum will provide you with an excellent opportunity to share and discuss your research results with colleagues from all over the world without leaving the comfort of your offices and labs, and to find out about the most recent advances in membrane research. In addition, the conference will provide excellent opportunities for networking and establishing collaborations.

A special conference issue will be published in Membranes (Impact Factor 4.2; CiteScore 9.4), featuring papers presented at the conference that have been accepted after regular peer-reviewing.

The conference will have the following five sessions, chaired by prominent membrane researchers:

S1. Biological Membranes and Biomimetic Membranes;
S2. Membrane Fabrication, Materials, and Characterization;
S3. Membrane Technologies for Energy Applications;
S4. Membrane Technologies for Water and Wastewater Treatment;
S5. Membrane Technologies for Gas Separation and Cross-Disciplinary Fields.

In addition to eliminating the expenses associated with travel and accommodation required for attending traditional conferences, there will be no registration fee, thus making participation in this online conference easily accessible to researchers with limited financial resources. We are enthusiastic about welcoming not only established membrane researchers, early career researchers and PhD students from academia but also membrane researchers from industry.

We look forward to your contribution to this exciting conference.

Kind regards,

Prof. Spas D. Kolev, PhD
