As part of the festivities of the golden jubilee of COPPE, the graduate school of Engineering of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, the Membrane Separation Processes Laboratory of COPPE is celebrating 45 years of activities on fundamental research and technology development on the applications of synthetic membranes. SIMPAM 2013 has been organized to celebrate this special anniversary and will be held between July 29 and August 02, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. In addition, two workshops were included as special events: the I Workshop on Gas Separation and the I Workshop on Ion Separation and Pre-treatment. The main objectives are to bring out and discuss with the Brazilian and the international scientific and technical community the recent research in Membrane Science and Technology developed throughout the country. The scientific program consists of plenary lectures which will cover the state-of-art in selected areas, highlighting the main challenges for the future, delivered by international membrane experts, from academia and industry. About 100 selected papers will be presented for the oral and poster sessions. Main topics include membrane formation and characterization; membrane processes such as MF, UF, NF, ED and RO and their hybrid operations; energy generation; pervaporation and vapor permeation; gas separation; and membrane bioreactors (MBR).
