We have established the Center for Membrane and Film Technology in Kobe University in 2007, which is the 〓rst and only-one university-driven membrane research center in Japan. Currently we are collaborating with about 80 industrial companies, as well as partnering with 14 academic membrane research centers overseas. In 2015, the integrated membrane research building (6000 m²) finished its construction and started its operation. It is the most diverse research unit integrating all aspects from basic to applied research. Furthermore, our membrane center was changed to directly belong to university and renamed as “Research Center for Membrane and Film Technology” in 2019. In this paper, I will introduce our researches about water treatment and organic solvent separation in our Membrane Center.
