Abstract: The present invention relates to a recovery system for drops comprising: a conduit for the circulation of a working fluid comprising a plurality of pockets that are isolated by separators, a recovery substrate comprising multiple compartments, a displacement device that is able to successively position the outlet of the conduit opposite at least two different compartments, a preparation device that is able to inject, into the conduit, an additional volume of separator fluid and an additional volume of carrier fluid, such that the volume of at least one separator is greater than or equal to a critical separation volume, and that the volume of at least one bubble formed by a pocket and a part of the separator is greater than or equal to a critical detachment volume.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for recuperating droplets (4), includes: supplying a chip (20) comprising a fluid circulation duct (46), injecting an emulsion (6) of droplets, injecting a carrier fluid (26) to form a working fluid (28) containing droplets of the emulsion which are spaced apart along the duct, conveying the working fluid through the duct, injecting a separating fluid (33) in order to separate the working fluid into a plurality of successive pockets (35), wherein each pocket is isolated from the next pocket by a separator (80), conveying the pockets and separators towards an outlet (66) of the chip, recuperating in a compartment (82) of a recuperation support (34) at least one pocket containing a droplet recuperated after conveying.
