Recent literature shows that chiral particles driven by vorticity gradients of a base Newtonian liquid can separate only in nonlinear or nonstationary flows. Here, we show that a base Newtonian liquid endowed with rotational degrees of freedom, can give rise to chiral particle propulsion and separation even in the Stokes flow approximation. We consider active mechanisms generating spatially inhomogeneous vorticity in the base liquid in a channel such as a magnetic torque, a pressure gradient and a sliding wall. These mechanisms generate regions of spatially inhomogeneous vorticity maintained by the internal angular momentum, propelling the chiral particles according to their handedness. Similar conclusions can be reached when one of the channel walls is replaced by a free surface acted on by surface shear. This behavior is in contrast to the case of standard Newtonian liquids where chiral particle propulsion generated by vorticity gradients is not possible in Stokes flow. Furthermore, this effect can find applications in industry, biology and medicine.
