August is traditionally a holiday month all over the world, with many companies (particularly those in Southern Europe) traditionally closing for the entire month. However this year we’re finding that August (and also September) has become the month of conferences.
Last week Merrow Scientific was present at a very well attended 42nd IUPAC congress in Glasgow.
Good to see such an active community on various topics including one close to our hearts, hydrogen storage. So our Rubotherm gravimetric sorption systems went down well. As well as several further enquiries for the new unique high pressure TGA system based around the Rubotherm MSB (magnetic suspension balance) technology - including coal and biomass gasification.
And next week it’s on to the British Zeolite Association annual conference, again lots of focus on unique storage materials for such applications as hydrogen storage. Good to see lots of effort being pushed into the new fuel sector.
And then the following month it’s on to the RAPS (Polymer Science) meeting and the Surface Area, Pore Size and Related Measurements meeting at Imperial College……
So a busy month ahead at conferences rather than holidays, but given the state of the weather…….
