Pall Corp is partnering with the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) in Saudi Arabia on filtration technology.
As part of the KAUST Industry Collaboration Program (KICP), Pall will participate in research on filtration, separation and purification technologies.
“Pall has been a technology leader in filtration and separation for decades,” said Dr Brian Muellers, senior vice president of Pall’s Industrial R&D. “By becoming part of this collaboration, we can match our deep technical and commercial knowledge with the research capabilities at KAUST and its partners to help further efforts in high-growth areas that will only become more critical in the coming years.”
Pall expects to collaborate with a number of research centres and other industrial partners in a range of research initiatives. Pall will complement the laboratory facilities at KAUST with applications expertise, separations materials and pilot scale systems to develop focused and commercially sustainable solutions to challenging separations problems.
“The Middle East is an important growth market for Pall,” said Ruby Chandy, president of Pall Industrial. “Our sales in the Middle East have more than doubled in the last four years. This collaboration illustrates our continued commitment to meeting the current and evolving needs of the region’s industries and utilities.”
