While quantum-tunneling is quite niche I think it's given to demonstrate something with everyday life application (considering the outsized impact of microprocessors on society).

This MoF thing is quite damn cool though, advancing moisture capturing in arid regions itself is big.

But also being able to separate chemicals in a more controlled manner sounds like something really groundbreaking that will probably impact chemistry for a long time to come.

Quantum tunneling has been productized for decades.
