Welcome

    You are invited to join us at FOA10, the 10th International Conference on Fundamentals of Adsorption to be held on May 23-28, 2010 at the Awaji Yumebutai (Dream Stage) International Conference Center coupled with the Westin Resort Hotel, Hyogo, Japan. Since the first one in 1983, FOAs have been unique in their contents and organization, covering recent advances in all aspects of adsorption from fundamentals to applications. FOA10 will of course keep this wide-view of adsorption field standing on the proud history of almost three decades. Another strong aim of FOA10 is to encourage development and understanding of the unique category of porous material, Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) or Porous Coordination Polymers (PCPs), which exhibit novel adsorption behaviors with potential applications.
    The conference is intended to foster international exchange between scientists and engineers of all disciplines, academia and industry, and between novice and expert, which would even be deepened under the atmosphere of resort area not only with the excellent conference facilities but also with the superb accommodation. Those who have a common interest in adsorption will find FOA10 well worth attending.
    An overview and a flyer of the FOA10 conference are available.
