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 science and the Barrer Award, which is awarded every three years for the meritorious recent pure or applied work in the field of porous inorganic materials.


FEZA2021

The British Zeolite Association is excited to announce that the BZA under the Federation of European Zeolite Association (FEZA) and in collaboration with the Royal Society of Chemistry Porous Materials Interest Group is organising FEZA2021 www.fezaconference.org

Important deadline:
Abstract Submission is open until: 08 April 2021

 


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.
