uncoupling
An uncoupler or uncoupling agent is a molecule that disrupts oxidative phosphorylation in prokaryotes and mitochondria or photophosphorylation in chloroplasts and cyanobacteria by dissociating the reactions of ATP synthesis from the electron transport chain. The result is that the cell or mitochondrion expends energy to generate a proton motive force, but the proton motive force is dissipated before the ATP synthase can recapture this energy and use it to make ATP. Uncouplers are capable of transporting protons through mitochondrial and lipid membranes.

Anyone heard of/used this. Unless I'm missing something this system doesn't need fixing to the substrate! Just roll it out and tile away! Not sure I'd be too keen on using it. IndorTec® 2E | GUTJAHR Systemtechnik GmbH- Aspect Tiling
