Congratulations to our SustainMemPro2026 Early Career Researcher Prize Winners

One of the highlights of SustainMemPro2026 was the breadth of research presented by Early Career Researchers. Thank you to everyone who contributed talks and posters – the scientific novelty, impact potential and overall quality of research presented gave our judges a difficult job.

Congratulations to Pierre Dieudonné, University of Edinburgh, who received the Best ECR Oral Presentation Prize for “Process Optimisation of Polymeric Membranes at Sub-Ambient Temperature for Performant and Energy-Efficient CO₂ Capture”.

The Best ECR Poster Presentation Prize was awarded to Jing Lin Lin, University of Manchester, for “Improving Supported Liquid Membranes Feasibility for Carbon Capture by Tailoring Solvent-Support Affinities”.

We are also grateful to the European Membrane Society EMS for supporting the prizes, and to our keynote speaker Gyorgy Szekely for presenting the awards.
