MARS seminar series. Speaker: Tim Myers (Centre de Recerca Matemàtica, Barcelona) Title: Mathematical Modelling of Adsorption Processes for Environmental Contaminant Removal

Abstract: Achieving internationally agreed energy and climate targets is now widely understood to be impossible without large‑scale removal of environmental contaminants, combined with substantial emission reductions across all sectors. Among the range of current technologies column adsorption is one of the most versatile and widely deployed methods for extracting contaminants from fluids. They are used in applications ranging from greenhouse‑gas capture and volatile‑organic‑compound removal to the treatment of emerging pollutants, PFA’s remediation, biogas purification, and biopharmaceutical processing. Their ease of integration into industrial systems and applicability to both gases and liquids make them a central tool in environmental remediation.
