![]() ![]() This requires the design of smart functional materials that can discriminate small molecules based upon slight differences in molecular structures and/or physical properties. There is a continual search for alternative separation technologies operating under ambient conditions that can, over time, replace the current processes to reduce energy consumption 3. These processes account for 10–15% of the world’s energy consumption and up to 70% of the running-costs of chemical plants 1, 2. The chemical separation of valuable feedstocks based upon fractional crystallisation or distillation is being carried out on a vast scale worldwide 1.
