17th International Zeolite Conference (17th IZC)
Author/Organiser: International Zeolite Association and the Russian National Zeolite Association
Event Website: http://izc17.com/
Event Date: 07 July 2013 to 12 July 2013
Event Type: Conference
Venue: Moscow, Russia
The Conference will cover all aspects of the science and technology associated with ordered porous materials – zeolites, zeotypes, mesostructured materials and porous hybrid solids (MOFs). The extremely high rate of the discovery of novel ordered porous nanomaterials, on the one hand, and the increasing demand in catalysts, adsorbents, membranes, sensors, etc. for new sustainable technologies, on the other hand, will set the concept of the conference:
“Zeolites and ordered porous materials: bridging the gap between nanoscience and technology”
The Conference will be preceded by an Intensive Summer School (July 5–6, 2013), which will be organized at the Educational Center of Moscow State University. A Post-Conference Field Trip is scheduled for July 13–15, 2013 in the beautiful area of Karelia very rich in minerals.
