“We had the pleasure of having Prof Simon Judd as a guest speaker at the GE Water & Process Technology Global Membrane Anniversary Summit organised on the lake of Tata, Hungary. He delivered an excellent keynote presentation, and his knowledge combined with his original presentation style impressed me. It's hard to speak too highly of Simon who has (co)-authored so many textbooks, articles, presentations and research works in membrane and MBR technology. We were honoured to have him at the Summit.”
