Welcome to the laboratory for membrane science and technology!
Our group works on diverse projects in the fields of water and energy, with emphasis on memrbane science and engineering and related fields such as polymers, electrochemistry, surface and nano-science. We explore novel types of membranes such as polyelectrolyte complex membranes for water purification and electrospun composite membranes for fuel cells and electrolyzers. We also strive to understand how membranes work at the fundamental level using advanced experiments, physical theories, and molecular modeling (MD and DFT).
We look for outstanding graduate students and postdocs, seeking challenging research projects. We have both theoretical and experimental projects to offer!
Join us at the forefront of membrane science and engineering!
We have PhD and MSc positions open.

NewSkin OITB Horizon 2020 project
Within the NewSkin OITB activities, the Technion-IIT team contributes its wide expertise in membrane modeling, preparation, and characterization. We help evaluate novel membranes for water and wastewater applications prepared using novel surface-coating techniques, including short and extended tests in a custom-designed cross-flow system in constant-flux and constant-pressure regimes.
