Welcome Message
It is a great honor to extend a warm invitation to The 13th Conference of the Aseanian Membrane Society (AMS13) hosted by the Membrane Society in Singapore (MEMSIS) to be held in the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) of Singapore on 4 – 6 July 2022.
The AMS13 is one of the most important conferences that brings our members together from around the world to share the latest advances in membrane science & technology and provides a great opportunity to expand our professional networks.
The Aseanian Membrane Society (AMS) was founded in 2002 to advance and benefit membrane science and technology in the regions of “Asian” and “Oceanian”. AMS endeavores and aims to serve membranologists in these regions and to promote and connect with membrane organizations around the world. AMS organizes an annual AMS Conference, except for the years when the International Congress on Membranes & Membrane Processes (ICOM) is held, which takes place every three years. The most recent AMS Conference (AMS12) took place in in Jeju, Korea in 2019, and attracted hundreds of participants from the member societies and across many other related fields. Due to Covid-19, the AMS13 was postponed from 2021 to 2022.
As General Co-Chairs of AMS13, we are certain that AMS13 will be a memorable experience for you both on personal and professional grounds. Your participation will make the conference more valuable and successful. We believe that this conference will surely serve as one of the most rewarding and memorable meetings for all of us.
All the members of the organizing committee are looking forward to meeting you in Singapore!
General Co-Chairs, AMS13
