FiltXPO – the new exposition and conference event based in the U.S. and dedicated exclusively to filtration and separation professionals, invites papers for presentation at its inaugural edition to be held February 26-28, 2020 at Navy Pier in Chicago, IL.  FiltXPO is expected to attract 300 exhibitors and 3000 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 of the 2020 conference includes: 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 of approximately one to two paragraphs or 200 words in length are accepted until May 1, 2019.  For full details visit https://www.filtxpo.com/papers.html 

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.
