Membrane technology is currently gaining enormous importance as an energy-efficient separation process. This particularly applies to the separation of micropollutants in water, the replacement of thermal processes in chemical process engineering, and gas separation in energy technology and climate protection.
Join us at the Kassel Membrane Days (former Jahrestreffen Membrantechnik) - organised by the DECHEMA/VDI Working Group Membrane Technology and the German Society for Membrane Technology (DGMT).
In keeping with the tradition of DECHEMA working group conferences, we aim to present and discuss new findings from membrane research. Our goal is to facilitate and stimulate exchange between early career researchers and established experts. The conference is intended to be open to international speakers and participants, so both German and English are permitted as lecture languages. Slides and posters shall be prepared in English.
We very much look forward to welcoming you in Kassel in 2026 for an intensive exchange!

The following topics will be addressed in particular at the conference:
Please prepare an English title and 1-page abstract (incl. figures, max. size 1 MB). The abstract should explicitly mention objectives, new results and conclusions or significance of the work.
The selection of the contributions will be based on the review of the abstracts by the scientific committee.
Please note:
1) Registration fee cannot be waived for authors.
2) Both German and English are permitted for oral presentations. Slides and posters should be prepared in English.
