Success in organizing 2008 International Congress on Membranes and Membrane Processes (ICOM 2008)
It is a great pleasure to invite you to the 2008 International Congress on Membranes and Membrane Processes (ICOM 2008). ICOM is the world’s most profound meeting for exchange of the most important aspects in fundamental and applied membrane science and engineering.
We believe that Hawaii is a perfect location for this event because it captures the cultures from the East and the West. ICOM 2008 will be a very special meeting in membrane science history.
With best wishes,
Ingo Pinnau, Chair, ICOM 2008

New Membrane Strips Carbon Dioxide from Natural Gas Faster and Better
A modified plastic material greatly improves the ability to separate global warming-linked carbon dioxide from natural gas as the gas is prepared for use, according to engineers at The University of Texas at Austin who have analyzed the new plastic’s performance.
Like a sponge that only soaks up certain chemicals, the new plastic permits carbon dioxide or other small molecules to go through hour-glass shaped pores within it, while impeding natural gas (methane) movement through these same pores. The thermally rearranged (TR) plastic works four times better than conventional membranes at separating out carbon dioxide through pores.
