2025 International Symposium on the Removal of Micropollutants from Surface Water, Organized by the Shanghai Advanced Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences
From May 30 to June 1, 2025, the Shanghai Advanced Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (SARI, CAS) and Zhejiang University jointly hosted the 2025 International Symposium on the Removal of Micropollutants from Surface Water. The event was supported by China's National Key R&D Program project "Key Technologies and Applications of High-Performance Membrane Materials for Water Treatment" and the NSFC BRICS International Cooperation Project.
The symposium featured a series of keynote lectures delivered by renowned experts from China and abroad in the fields of membrane technology and environmental science. Chaired by Professor Tao He, this prestigious event brought together more than 65 experts and young researchers from 17 research institutes and universities across five countries.
The presentations addressed the removal of micropollutants — including antibiotics, pesticides, and halogenated organic compounds — which are persistent contaminants of aquatic environments.
