FiltXPO, the new exposition and conference event based in the US and dedicated exclusively to filtration and separation professionals, invites papers for presentation at its inaugural edition to be held from 26-28 February 2020, at Navy Pier, Chicago, IL.

The event is expected to attract 300 exhibitors and 3,000 attendees. Professionals involved in the design, manufacture, sale, use or study of filtration and separation products, equipment and services are encouraged to provide brief abstracts on industry topics that connect filtration and separation to process and product development, end use markets, science, materials and applications.

The desired focus topics of the 2020 conference include: biopharmaceutical filtration needs, membrane filtration and the approach of nanofiber-enhanced meltblown materials, energy technologies and applications across all sectors of filtration and separation. Abstract submissions are accepted until 1 May.

The FiltXPO technical conference sessions are intended to provide relevant, insightful information to aid in planning and decision-making, as well as concepts that add value to international filtration and separation research, development and commercialization of the latest materials and manufacturing technologies. The audience will include engineers, R&D professionals, executive management, and supply chain management across many market sectors.

Held every 18-months in Chicago, IL, FiltXPO offers three-days of exhibitions and technical conference sessions featuring daily keynote addresses, and over 36 speaker presentations.  The technical programme will be curated by a Scientific Committee of renowned filtration and separation experts, and co-chaired by Behnam Pourdeyhimi, PhD, Klopman Distinguished Chaired Professor at North Carolina State University and Paul Marold, President, Lydall Performance Materials.

“FiltXPO is the event that brings together innovation and applications in the filtration and separation industry. This technical conference and exposition will create valuable opportunities for buyers, suppliers, designers and researchers to discover the latest developments and establish new connections in our industry,” said Paul Marold.

Technical conference sessions will run in conjunction with the exhibition. The programme also includes a 1 .5-day intensive filter media training course designed for professionals committed to learn more about the development, testing and application of filter media and is available separately.

“The conference element of FiltXPO will bring together some of the leading thinkers on the cutting edge of the key areas of filtration and separation sciences,” said Behnam Pourdeyhimi.
