Separation Systems Engineering Laboratory

Helping out behind the scenes

Operations that separate objects are used in a variety of fields, such as liquor distillation, fuel cells and water purifiers. Membranes are one of the things that assist these separation technologies. Our laboratory aims to develop membranes to improve the efficiency of separations. Separating things requires the creation of holes that are smaller than a nanometer. We are working hard every day to create intricate technologies that will contribute to the efficient use of water and energy resources.

FOR SOCIETY

We should not expect that clean water will always be available naturally. When it is not, the simple water treatment membrane our laboratory developed can give people clean water anytime and anywhere.

RESEARCH THEMES

Development of silica membranes for hydrogen production equipment
Development of composite ceramic membranes for water treatment
