A domestic team of researchers has developed a method to separate nano-sized molecules.

A Sogang University research team led by chemistry professor Yoon Kyung-byung said that it separated different molecules using a zeolite molecular sieve, which is a crystalline high-porous material.

The team said the method will enable people to easily separate what they want from compounds of various molecules at low costs.

The team is planning to use the method to separate carbon dioxide from air for the development of a technology that will help address climate change.
