Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110168540DESALINATION APPARATUS AND PROCESS - Disclosed herein are an apparatus and a process that can be used to remove sulfur dioxide other environmentally hazardous contaminants from a gaseous waste stream while at the same time providing a source of purified water. The process can be used for the desalination of sea or brackish water, or for the concentration of contaminated waste water. The method comprises feeding a gaseous waste stream that comprises sulfur dioxide into a diffusion tower. Feed water is sprayed onto a packing material in the diffusion tower to form a thin film of feed water on a surface of the packing material. Sulfur dioxide diffuses into the thin film of feed water to form water that contains sulfur dioxide. The gaseous waste stream is simultaneously humidified. The humidified gaseous waste stream is then subjected to direct contact condensation to obtain purified water.07-14-2011

20080197779VARIOUS METHODS, APPARATUSES, AND SYSTEMS THAT USE IONIC WIND TO AFFECT HEAT TRANSFER - A method, apparatus, and system are described for an ionic wind generator. The ionic wind generator may have a first electrode that is elevated off a surface of a device that the ionic wind generator is intended to cool. A first surface of the first electrode is in contact with a first surface of a first post that elevates the first electrode off the surface of the device that the ionic wind generator is intended to cool. The ionic wind generator causes a generation of ions that are then drawn through an interstitial atmosphere from the first electrode to a second electrode to affect a velocity of local flow over the surface of the device between the first electrode and the second electrode. The flow from a forced flow device also affects the velocity of local flow over the surface of the device between the first electrode and the second electrode,08-21-2008
20090095630MICROFLUIDIC PUMPING BASED ON DIELECTROPHORESIS - This paper presents a microfluidic pumping approach using traveling-wave dielectrophoresis (tw-DEP) of microparticles. Flow is generated directly in the microfluidic devices by inducing electromechanical effects in the fluid using microelectrodes. The fluidic driving mechanisms due to the particle-fluid and particle-particle interactions under twDEP are analyzed, and the induced flow field is obtained from numerical simulations. Experimental measurements of the flow velocity in a prototype DEP micropumping device show satisfactory agreement with the numerical predications.04-16-2009

20100112286SUPERHYDROPHOBIC SURFACES - Control and switching of liquid droplet states on artificially structured surfaces have applications in the field of microfluidics. The present work introduces the concept of using structured surfaces consisting of non-communicating (closed cell) roughness elements to prevent the transition of a droplet from the Cassie to the Wenzel state (which would result in the irreversible loss of the superhydrophobic non-wetting properties of the surface). The use of non-communicating roughness elements leads to a confinement of the medium under the droplet in its Cassie state. Transition to the Wenzel state on such surfaces many include expulsion of this confined medium, which offers increased resistance to the Wenzel transition unlike surfaces consisting of communicating (open cell) roughness elements. This enhances the robustness of the Cassie state and significantly minimizes the possibility of the Cassie-Wenzel transition under the influence of any external wetting pressure (pressure resulting from self weight of the droplet, dynamic pressure due to droplet impact on the surface, or electrowetting-induced pressure on the droplet). The resistance to the Cassie-Wenzel transition can be further increased by utilizing surfaces with nanostructured (instead of microstructured) non-communicating elements, since the resistance is inversely related to the dimension of the roughness element. The resistance of a surface to the Wenzel transition is measured in terms of the electrowetting (EW) voltage used to trigger this transition. Surfaces with noncommunicating roughness elements (closed cells) exhibited significantly higher voltages to trigger the Wenzel transition than corresponding surfaces with communicating roughness elements.05-06-2010
