Abstract The design of molecularly selective membranes is paramount importance in the electrochemical separation organic acids from complex fermentation streams, due to presence multicomponent species. However, current membrane‐integrated technologies have relied on ion‐exchange that lack intrinsic ion‐selectivity, thus preventing their application for value‐added recovery competing ions. Here, this study demonstrates a layer‐by‐layer polyelectrolyte functionalization approach controlling...
