Electrostatic Separators TRIZ Cases
- Electrostatic Coalescing Oil/Water Separator
Electric field pre-coalesces water droplets in elongated vessels, resolving low separation efficiency and long processing times.
- Microfluidic Fluidic Interface Particle Separation
A microfluidic system separates particles using a fluidic interface between sample and buffer streams.
- Electrostatic Sieves for Microplastic Removal from Water
Electrically charged metal sieves trap microplastics from water droplets, resolving the trade-off between removal efficiency and device complexity.
- Open Optoelectrowetting Device for Lab-on-a-Chip Integration
An open optoelectrowetting device uses coplanar electrodes and a photoconductor to manipulate liquid droplets via dynamic virtual electrodes.
- Carbon Nanotube Separation Using Magnetic Field Sorting
A size sorting device uses electromagnets to attract carbon nanotube agglomerates while allowing dispersed nanotubes to pass through.
