  • Electrowetting coalescence device with porous layers
    Patent number: 11819782
    Abstract: An electrowetting coalescing device for coalescing droplets of a dispersed phase within a continuous phase includes an inlet in fluid communication with a first porous layer and a second porous layer. The first porous layer is employed as a first electrode and the second porous layer is employed as a second electrode, and a voltage difference exists between the first porous layer and the second porous layer to thereby create an electric field between the first porous layer and the second porous layer. The electrowetting coalescing device includes an outlet for receiving a fluid having passed through the first porous layer and the second porous layer.
