Our group has started new project:Preparation and characterization of novel polymeric membranes with controlled embedding of additives for effective CO2 separation from gas mixtures (15-06479S,01/2015-12/3017) supported by Czech Science Foundation.

Marek participated at stand-up show “Diplomky na stojáka” in natural science section. His presentation won audience award and it was also awarded by scientific committee as the best presentation. video

Marek received Hlávka’s prize for the best students and graduates from Prague’s universities, BUT Brno and young talented researchers from Czech academy of science.

Ondřej and Miroslav participated in the biennial ‘Aachener Membran Kolloquium’ (AMK), organised by the Chair of Chemical Process Engineering at RWTH Aachen University, which is one of the leading international conferences on industrial applications of membrane technology.

Marek was in the first ten awarded with Unipetrol awards for his Master thesis “Study of gas transport in high free volume polymers”.

Kryštof and Marek participated in XXXI EMS Summer school on Innovative membrane system organized by the Institute on Membrane Technology in Italy.

Kryštof placed the third on the EMS Summer school ranked list of applicants and received free summer school registration. Congratulations.

We have participated in conference CHISA 2014 in Prague with three oral and one poster presentations.

Karel participated in 248. American Chemical Society National Meeting, San Francisco, USA, 10-14.8. with a poster K. Friess*, O. Vopička, K. Pilnáček, M. Lanč, P. Izák, Gas and vapor separation by high ionic liquid content polymer membranes.

Marek was the first at Crytur award 2014 – contest for the best Master thesis in material science with his Master thesis “Study of gas transport in high free volume polymers”.
