METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CAPTURING ANALYTE PARTICLES IN A LIQUID - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18545610 titled 'METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CAPTURING ANALYTE PARTICLES IN A LIQUID

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a system with a reservoir for holding liquid and capture devices with electrodes to generate an electric field.

  • The system includes a reservoir for liquid storage.
  • Each capture device has a well with electrodes that create an electric field.
  • The electrodes are positioned at least 50%, 65%, or 75% of the well's depth from the top opening.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Reservoir for liquid storage.
  • Capture devices with wells and electrodes.
  • Electric field generation for capturing substances.

Potential Applications:

  • Water purification.
  • Chemical separation.
  • Environmental remediation.

Problems Solved:

  • Efficient liquid capture.
  • Enhanced separation processes.
  • Environmental cleanup.

Benefits:

  • Improved efficiency.
  • Cost-effective solution.
  • Environmental impact mitigation.

Commercial Applications:

  • Water treatment facilities.
  • Chemical processing plants.
  • Environmental cleanup companies.

Prior Art: Research on electric field-based separation technologies.

Frequently Updated Research: Ongoing studies on enhancing electric field capture methods.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does the system improve liquid capture efficiency? 2. What are the potential environmental benefits of this technology?


Original Abstract Submitted

A system including: a reservoir for holding the liquid; and one or more capture devices, each comprising: a well having a top opening up to the reservoir, a bottom, and a depth extending from the top to the bottom, and a first set of electrodes at least 50%, at least 65%, or at least 75%, of the well's depth below the top opening, for generating an electric field.
