Abstract

A circuit current was effectively generated through a macro mosaic membrane, which was composed of separated membranes of a cation exchange membrane and an anion exchange membrane. Under a concentration gradient of non-electrolyte, up-hill transport of potassium chloride was observed with this macro mosaic membrane.
