Phosphate Research Network (PhoResNet) gathers national and international scientists and industrials working on phosphates and derivatives. One of the main objectives of PhoResNet is to promote research in the field of phosphate and its derivatives and to create synergies between university researchers and industry.

In this context, PhoResNet organizes a biannual conference “International Conference for Research on Phosphates and Derivatives” ( Phosphate Days ) that provides a unique setting and space to bring together scientists and engineers, from all over the world to exchange new findings and develop collaborations and partnerships.

During this conference, a special session will be dedicated to young researchers (PhDs, Post Docs, Engineers) offering them an opportunity to present early results of their research. Special awards will be accorded to distinguished young candidates, in recognition for their significant work. The selection will be made by an international jury.

Phosphate Days 2018 welcomes scientific contributions from one or more of the following topics:

If you would like to present a paper, please submit a short abstract in English, of no more than one page , to PhosohateDays@phoresnet.org by July 15, 2018. If accepted, you will be asked to submit a full paper before the start of the conference. The articles will form the unrefereed proceedings, which will be available to all delegates on a USB memory stick at the conference.

The copyright of the published papers will continue to belong to the individual authors, and not to PhoResNet.

A selection of papers will be published in a special issue of an influential journal, which name will be revealed in an upcoming communication. The concerned authors will be asked to resend their final version to the journal for the refereeing process no later than one month after the conference end.
