IFRF Membership is administered by eight National Committees for Flame Research and centrally via the Associate Member Group which coordinates services in those regions not covered by the National Committees. Each year IFRF’s National Committees host a range of meetings, events and symposia linked to our core themes around safe, clean and efficient industrial combustion.

Here is a round-up of what they have in store for 2019:

Italy – Comitato Italiano meeting held on 30^th January 2019 in Pisa, Italy
