BPIFrance, France2023 project (09/05/2025)
Teams LHYS, L2IA, LIME, L2MEfrom the LMCT team and on the following topic:
"Simulation of the equilibrium and the transport of ions at the liquid-liquid interfaces"
Defense scheduled for Thursday, November 20, 2025 at 2:00 PM (ICSM Auditorium).
from the LMCT team and on the following topic:
"Molecular prediction of Gibbs energies of ion transfer for liquid-liquid extraction "
Defense scheduled for Tuesday, December 2, 2025 at 2:00 PM (ICSM Auditorium).
Objective of the team: to understand and solve interfacial issues which is mainly declined for transfer at the liquid / liquid and liquid / air interfaces, taking into account the speciation in solution.
Several techniques for characterizing solid, liquid interfaces exist at the ICSM in order to quantify sorption or transfer and exchange phenomena
Created in January 2007, the Marcoule Institute in Separation Chemistry (ICSM) is a Joint Research Unit (UMR 5257) between the French Atomic Energy Commission (CEA), the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS), the University of Montpellier (UM) and the National Graduate School of Chemistry in Montpellier (ENSCM). ICSM is composed of 3 research axes gathering 8 laboratories working in close collaboration (see the 2019-2022 scientific report, pdf format):

It is affiliated with the Chemistry Division of the University of Montpellier, as well as the Institute of Sciences and Technologies for a Circular Economy of Low-Carbon Energies (ISEC) within the Energy Division (DES) of CEA Marcoule. In this context, ICSM aims to develop fundamental research with the primary objective of "offering choices" for the development of separation chemistry processes applied to the field of decarbonized energies, while integrating the challenges of sustainable nuclear energy and the broader challenges of recycling for a virtuous circular economy.
