British Zeolite Association

The British Zeolite Association promotes zeolite and ordered nanoporous materials science in the UK. It does this through its annual research conference, which brings academic and industrial scientists together to discuss the latest developments in the field, as well as by its support for research students, its summer research bursaries for under-graduate students and other educational programmes and the Founders' Award, an annual prize for the best PhD student working in the area of micro- or mesoporous scienceand the Barrer Award, which is awarded every three years for the meritorious recent pure or applied work in the field of porous inorganic materials.

Annual meeting of the British Zeolite Association 16 - 19 July 2018

For the 41st annual meeting of the British Zeolite Association we will be returning to Ambleside in the Lake District.

UK MOF symposium 9 - 10 April 2018

After the successful half-day meetings in 2016 and 2018, we are organising a two day meeting to bring the UK research community working on metal-organic frameworks and open framework compounds todgether at the University of Southampton.

These pages provide an overview of the various activities of the BZA, together with news and information on upcoming events, general information about zeolites and some useful links.

And the winner of the 2018 Founders' Award is Giulia Bignami, University of St Andrews

Congratulations! Giulia has made significant contribuitons to the isotopic enrichment of important inorganic and inorganic-organic hybrid materials, thereby enabling quantitative and in situ analysis of structure and processes through sophisticated high-resolution solid-state NMR techniques. Giulia will receive her award and will give a lecture at this year's BZA Annual Meeting in Ambleside.
