Sophia University, Tokyo, Japan
Introduction
On behalf of the Organizing Committee, it is our great
pleasure to cordially welcome you to the 8th International
Conference on Ion Exchange (ICIE2022) to be held during 4– 7 November 2022, at Sophia University in Tokyo, Japan.
The first ICIE was held at Tokyo Institute of Technology,
Tokyo in 1991, then Takamatsu, Kanazawa, Chiba,Melbourne, Okinawa, and Yogyakarta. The ICIE held in theeastern side mainly in Japan and the International Ion
Exchange Conference (IEX) held in the western side mainlyin UK are held alternately every 4 years as the majorinternational conferences of ion exchange in the world.

Sophia Symposium

Keynote Speakers

Sophia symposium organized by Sophia University will beheld as a special session of ICIE 2022. The main topic of theSophia symposium is "Ion Exchange Technology forEnvironment”. This symposium will be held in the morning
session as open to the public.

For the list of around 14 confirmed keynote speakers, pleaserefer to the ICIE2022 website:

The area around theYotsuyaCampus,Sophia
University
has long been at thecenter of the Japanesepolitical, economic

The Imperial Palace,
the National Diet, theState Guest House,
and the National Diet
Library as well as anarray of offices ofmultinational
enterprises are allwithin easy walking
distanceoftheuniversity.

This symposium will cover all aspects of ion exchange
researches from fundamental ion exchange sciences toindustrial applications. The scientific program includes 1)
two plenary lectures, 2) keynote oral presentations, 3) oralpresentations, and 4) poster presentations.
