Deadline soon for NWRI-AMTA Fellowship applications

Only one month remains before the American Membrane Technology Association (AMTA) and the National Water Research Institute (NWRI) close applications for the NWRI-AMTA Fellowships for Membrane Technology.

The deadline for the two 2‑year US$10,000/year scholarships is 1 June 2014.

Research must relate to the advancement of membrane technologies in the water, wastewater or water-reuse industries. It must also be consistent with AMTA vision statement: “Solving water supply and quality issues through the widespread application of membrane technology.”

Possible areas of study are:

· Membrane bioreactors (MBRs)
· Membrane fouling/scaling control
· Membrane removal efficiency
· Membrane pretreatment
· Improved feedwater recovery
· Reduced energy consumption.
