The topical focus of the symposium is on separations that are key to the development of sustainable energy systems and energy-efficient processes. Presentations in oral and poster sessions will be made on a variety of fundamental and applied separations topics related to advanced energy systems.

Papers that are accepted for presentation in the symposium will be printed in the proceedings, which is published as a special issue in a refereed journal. Full-length papers are to be submitted prior to the beginning of the symposium for technical review. We are particularly interested in papers that illustrate new ideas, describe novel applications, identify newly recognized needs, and generate lively scientific/technical discussions concerning separations science and technology.

The presentation of oral papers will be done without concurrent sessions to facilitate cross–discipline discussion among experts with different interests. The poster session, which offers refreshments and is structured less formally than the oral sessions, is a featured event at this meeting and typically attracts full participation from the attendees. All papers in poster and oral sessions receive equal consideration for inclusion in the proceedings.
