MINNEAPOLIS, MN, Sept. 21, 2007 -- The American Filtration and Separations Society (AFS) is offering short course training on October 15th in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

Two of the seven filtration and separation short courses that AFS is sponsoring on October 15th are "Microfiltration Membrane" and "Ultrafiltration Membrane."

The courses are specifically designed for an engineer or chemist working in the pharmaceutical, microelectronic, food and beverage, water and waste water, chemical, laboratory, or medical markets.

In these two half-day courses, attendees will gather new insights into the various types of microporous membranes including: strengths and weaknesses, performance characteristics, integrity testing, retention efficiency, ratings and comparisons.

They will learn to differentiate between microporous, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, and reverse osmosis membranes. These courses provide an in-depth study of the microfiltration and ultrafiltration membranes typically used in the pharmaceutical, microelectronic, food and beverage, water and waste water, chemical, laboratory, and medical markets.

The "Microfiltration Membrane" course is in the morning on October 15th. The "Ultrafiltration Membrane" course is in the afternoon. They are being given at the Kensington Court Hotel in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

These courses precede the AFS Conference "Emission Solutions in Transportation", Oct 16-18 at the same location.

Instructor for both courses: Scott P. Yaeger
With over 30 years of experience in the development, manufacture, sales, marketing, application, and management of membrane companies including Sartorius, Cuno, Gelman Sciences, Parker Hannifin, and PTI Advanced Filtration, Yaeger has held positions titled Vice President, Engineering, Vice President Sales and Marketing, Sr. Vice President and General Manager, Executive Vice President. In addition to his experience in membrane manufacturing companies, Yaeger has spent a significant part of his career working with membrane users in all applicable markets worldwide.
