BZA Annual Meeting 2023, Manchester UK


 
Welcome to Manchester and the British Zeolite Association (BZA) annual meeting 2023!

On behalf of the British Zeolite Association (BZA) annual meeting Organising Committee, we warmly invite you to attend the annual BZA Conference in Manchester, 3rd – 5th April 2023. This will be a great opportunity to gather and celebrate the successes and achievements of colleagues and students in the fields of porous materials, and their applications in both academia and industry. The general themes of the 2023 BZA conference include all aspects of porous materials research such as the latest fundamental research and their many emerging applications for answering Net Zero challenges. Let us therefore take the opportunity to exchange experiences and new ideas, and to grow the community. We look forward to welcoming you to Manchester in April 2023!

We will publish the detailed programme in the coming days. However, we can confirm that the welcome and registration will take place in the University of Manchester Schuster Building from 2 pm - 4:30 pm on April 3rd after which the opening talks will begin.
