The 10th Pacific Basin Conference on Adsorption Science and Technology (PBAST-10), organized by Profs. Ki Bong Lee (Korea University) and Youn-Sang Bae (Yonsei University), is a premier international forum that brings together researchers, engineers, and industry professionals working in all areas of adsorption science and technology. Building on a long-standing tradition of fostering collaboration across the Pacific Rim and beyond, PBAST-10 will provide a platform for the presentation and discussion of the latest advances in adsorbent materials, adsorption processes, molecular simulations, separation technologies, carbon capture, energy and environmental applications, and emerging industrial innovations.
The conference aims to promote scientific exchange, strengthen international collaborations, and inspire the next generation of researchers through interactions with leading experts in the field. Through plenary lectures, keynote and invited presentations, technical sessions, poster presentations, and networking events, PBAST-10 will showcase cutting-edge developments that address global challenges in energy, sustainability, and environmental protection.
Researchers from academia, industry, and government institutions are warmly invited to participate and contribute to advancing the future of adsorption science and technology. The PBAST conference series has served as a key meeting point for the adsorption community for decades, providing a unique opportunity to exchange ideas, establish collaborations, and shape future research directions.
