  • Membrane-based technologies to separate oil–water mixtures are energy-intensive, suffer from fouling or cannot separate a wide range of mixtures. Now, a new membrane is reported that is superhydrophilic and superoleophobic, and can separate a range of oil–water mixtures with high efficiency, without an external energy source.

  • Controlling surface wettability using visible light is highly attractive for a range of liquid separation technologies. Here, Varanasi, McKinley and colleagues fabricate dye-sensitized photocatalytic TiO2surfaces on which liquid droplet motion can be externally manipulated by visible light illumination.

  • Surfaces that display contact angles >150° along with a low contact angle hysteresis for both low and high surface tension liquids are known as superomniphobic surfaces. Such surfaces have several applications, including self-cleaning, non-fouling, stain-free clothing, drag reduction, corrosion prevention and separation of liquids. In this review, we discuss the design criteria, recent studies, applications, challenges and potential of superomniphobic surfaces.
