About this Research Topic
In this context, Frontiers in Membrane Science and Technology, in collaboration with the African Membrane Society (AMSIC), is delighted to present this Research Topic with the goal of highlighting the scientific contributions cantered on the workshop, showcasing the high-quality work of researchers, and to disseminate membrane science applications, and their importance for the region's development, and for improving the quality of life of citizens. Specifically, the workshop organizers, will strive for implementing impactful decisions aimed to improve human health in Africa and other regions of the world, by expanding drinking water supply, preserving clean air and broadening access to decentralized energy sources.
This collection is dedicated to promoting discussions and advancements in the region on water treatment and air filtration, with the aim to inform and inspire researchers from this region and globally.
In this Research Topic, we welcome submission of manuscripts of original research papers, brief research reports, perspectives, reviews and mini-reviews on the topics covered in the workshop including but not limited to:
• Membrane filtration and desalination processes for cities and small communities
• Membranes for wastewater reuse: agricultural irrigation for cities and small communities
• Decentralized energy systems and membrane filtration processes
• Water-energy-food nexus
• Access to drinkable water in cities and small communities
• Wastewater & reuse
• Air quality & filtration
Note for Authors: These submissions will be peer reviewed according to the journal's scope and standards and will be published Open Access.
