An apparatus comprised of a mass transfer microchannel plate (MCP) structure distillation column in a columnar configuration within an air tight cylindrical housing. The apparatus may be used in separation of organic chemicals like petrochemicals, vegetable oils, inorganic chemicals like steam stripping of bromine from aqueous potassium chloride/potassium bromide solutions, corrosive as well as separation of hazardous gases. The MCP structures may have an electric field or electromagnetic field across the MCP to create synergestic mass transfer separation potential either to increase or decrease separations. Blood filtering as well as other biomedical separations are possible by this synergestic mass transfer. Catalytic depositions within the channels of the MCPs, either as wall coatings with the channels open or as solid porous catalytic material that has osmosis action thereacross further enhances chemical reactions during the separation process or during passage through the channels. The procedure can also be used for gas clean-up, such as combustor discharges.
