Experiment. Acidic-dissolved phosphate (pH 1.6 to pH 4), is flushed through a heat flow chamber (∆T), leading to the selective enrichment of phosphate at the bottom outlet by the interplay of convection (black) and thermophoresis (white). Downstream neutralization (pH neut ) mimics the transition to prebiotic chemistry conditions that allow, for instance, the formation of trimetaphosphate (TMP).
