Division Spotlight
Young Members Group
The Young Members Group works to encourage and enable all young professional members to be actively involved in the efforts and endeavors of the Society at all levels (Professional Divisions, ANS Governance, Local Sections, etc.) as they transition from the role of a student to the role of a professional. It sponsors non-technical workshops and meetings that provide professional development and networking opportunities for young professionals, collaborates with other Divisions and Groups in developing technical and non-technical content for topical and national meetings, encourages its members to participate in the activities of the Groups and Divisions that are closely related to their professional interests as well as in their local sections, introduces young members to the rules and governance structure of the Society, and nominates young professionals for awards and leadership opportunities available to members.

This paper describes the state of the art of multiscale modeling of chemical solutions encountered in separation processes. It evidences the twofold role of modeling in the understanding and the prediction of selectivity of extracting molecules and gives an outline of the situation. First, the state of the art of the modeling techniques is given, and in the various sections the different levels of description, ranging from coordination mechanisms to macroscopic calculation of selectivity ratio, are presented. An overview of the main results is given, and a prospective roadmap to multiscale modeling is provided.
