DEFINITION

Classification: 204/517

Ion selective:

(under subclass 516) Process in which the barrier distinguishes between ions of different charges to effect separation.

(1) Note. Methods which distinguish between ions having different levels of positive or negative charge are included here as well as those distinguishing between positive and negative charges.

(2) Note. Use of ion exchange membranes to effect separation is included in this group.
