The Dutch Zeolite Association (DZA) has been founded in 1994 as a Dutch-Belgian co-operation in order to enhance interest in and knowledge of zeolites and related materials. The DZA co-operates with the FEZA and the IZA to achieve those goals.

The DZA organises symposia and summerschools on all kind of subjects related to synthesis, characterisation and applications of zeolites and related materials. An annual symposium on zeolite catalysis is organised as part of the NCCC conference. The next DZA day will be on November 11, 2010 in Eindhoven.

Membership to the DZA is open to KNCV members and non-members. You can apply by contacting the KNCV-office.
