About Us
PMS was founded in 2014
As an outcome of a national seminar on membrane technology organized by the Membrane Group of COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus. The society has since grown very fast with a number of membrane groups becoming its part. In the past few years, a number of successful international events have been organized by PMS that include International Conference on Separation Processes (2017), Sustainability in Process Industries (2016/2018) and GCRF Workshop on Membrane Technology (2019). We welcome the researchers. Students, industrial professionals and entrepreneurs involved in the membrane research and development.
Our Vision
- To be the nexus of membrane science and technology activity in Pakistan.
- To promote collaboration among the researchers, technologists and industry involvement.
- To disseminate membrane technology across the community and to end users.
- To pace with current global research and highlight future trends.
Our Mission
