A liquid-based Janus porous membrane for convenient liquid–liquid extraction and immiscible oil/water separation

A novel liquid-based Janus porous membrane system was developed through the simple infusion of water and oil within different surfaces. This generates a stable liquid-infusion interface that repels immiscible organic solvents and water, and itself floats at the oil/water interface as a separator. The developed membrane successfully acts as a simple alternative for high-performance liquid separation.
