  • Patent number: 12515189
    Abstract: Fluidic systems, modules, and associated methods are generally described. In some embodiments, a fluidic system comprises a module which is configured such that fluid may flow therethrough with a relatively uniform time-averaged linear flow rate (i.e., the time-averaged flow rate that is perpendicular to the transverse cross-sectional area) and/or time-averaged flux across the transverse cross-sectional area of the module. Advantageously, such modules may behave in a way such that the time-averaged linear flow rate and/or time-averaged flux exhibits minimal or no dependence on the transverse cross-sectional area thereof. This may allow for modules to be scaled-up in a relatively facile manner by merely increasing the transverse cross-sectional area, which may eliminate or substantially reduce the need for other components of the module to be redesigned upon scale-up. In some embodiments, modules may be scaled-up in a manner that requires no or minimal chemical process adjustments.

  • Publication number: 20240050874
    Abstract: Devices and methods for separating multi-phase fluids, comprising a first porous medium portion and a second porous medium portion. The device comprises a fluidic channel comprising an inlet; the first porous medium portion between the fluidic channel and a first auxiliary outlet; and the second porous medium portion between the fluidic channel and a second auxiliary outlet. The method comprises presenting a combined flow comprising a first fluid phase and a second fluid phase to a separator, wherein the first porous medium portion has a higher affinity for the first fluid phase than for the second fluid phase, and the second porous medium portion has a higher affinity for the second fluid phase than for the first fluid phase.
