The National Science Foundation (NSF) provides funding for research on novel methods and materials for separation processes. NSF is particularly interested in:
- Nanostructured materials for separations
- Biorenewable resource separation processes
- Purification of drinking water
- Field (flow, magnetic, electrical) induced separations
- Separation of molecular constituents from blood
Awards are generally for one to three years, and the average annual award size is $80,000. Projects outside these areas may be considered, but contact the Program Director to avoid your proposal being returned without review.
Submissions are due between August 15, 2013-September 17, 2013. For more details, see the link below:
