Bulk and precipitation polymerization methods were used to prepare ibuprofen-molecularly imprinted polymers. Molecularly imprinted polymer-bulk and -precipitation were synthesized in acetonitrile, likewise molecularly imprinted polymer-bulk (mixture) and molecularly imprinted polymer-precipitation (mixture) in a mixture of acetonitrile/toluene (75:25 v/v). N adsorption-desorption analysis data revealed that molecularly imprinted polymer-precipitation (mixture) has the highest specific surface area (200.

Sunlight, as an inexhaustible energy source, and the oceans, as one of the most valuable treasures on Earth, are available for free. Simultaneous exploitation of these two sources of energy and matter (sunlight and oceans) in one configuration can provide a sustainable solution for future energy supply.
