  • METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND APPARATUS FOR ENCAPSULATING A SEQUESTRATION MEDIUM
    Publication number: 20210060512
    Abstract: An apparatus for encapsulating a material includes a first channel in fluid communication with a source of a material for encapsulation, at least one second channel in fluid communication with a source of a photopolymerizable compound, and at least one third channel in fluid communication with a source of an encapsulating fluid. Flow of the photopolymerizable compound into the first channel produces sheath flow in the first channel such that the material is within the polymerizable compound. Addition of the encapsulating fluid produces encapsulation precursors. Upon irradiation via a UV-radiation source, the photopolymerizable compound in the encapsulation precursor forms a polymer shell encapsulating the material for encapsulation.
