主　　题：Separation Thermodynamics Purity Mixture 

摘      要：In this paper,we propose“The Infinite Separation Principle.This principle contains two implications:firstly,even exhausting all separation approaches,including chemical techniques,it is impossible to achieve 100%purity for separating a mixture;secondly,separation can continue infinitely without an endpoint.
