Objective This project aims to strengthen the formation of new research lines in the area of porous materials at the Universitat Rovira i Virgili (Spain). The goal is to create a centre, where the synthesis-structure-function relationship of carbon-based porous materials for gas storage, and porous membranes for gas and liquid separations, will be studied. New and emerging technologies relay on porous materials because their importance in separations, catalysis, as scaffolds for tissue growth, nanoelectronics, sensors, etc.To reach this goal, we have assembled a multidisciplinary team of researchers, with expertise in materials synthesis, electro-hydrodynamics, surface characterization, and molecular modelling. The project will consist on a knowledge acquisition stage, where staff from the home institution will be trained at world class institutions, followed by the implementation, at the home institution, of the techniques and methodologies learned.
