Systems and methods are disclosed for use in the separation of chiral compounds, and enantiomers in particular. The system comprises a cavity (110) for containing a fluid mixture that comprises one or more types of chiral molecules, which may also include enantiomers, and at least one ferromagnetic or paramagnetic substrate (120) providing at least one interface (130) with said fluid mixture. The substrate (120) is magnetized providing a magnetic field Bz perpendicular to said ferromagnetic or paramagnetic interface (130), thereby providing a variation in the interaction energy of chiral molecules of different handedness, aka. enantiomers, with said substrate (120).

Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for use in the separation of chiral compounds, and enantiomers in particular. The system comprises a cavity (110) for containing a fluid mixture that comprises one or more types of chiral molecules, which may also include enantiomers, and at least one ferromagnetic or paramagnetic substrate (120) providing at least one interface (130) with said fluid mixture. The substrate (120) is magnetized providing a magnetic field Bz perpendicular to said ferromagnetic or paramagnetic interface (130), thereby providing a variation in the interaction energy of chiral molecules of different handedness, aka. enantiomers, with said substrate (120).
