Microfluidic separation processes using the thermodiffusion effect
(Elsevier B.V., 2018)
The numerical and experimental results presented in this work show that a relatively small temperature gradient
(5K), has great potential to generate a separation in interesting mixtures for biological purpose. In fact, ...
Thermodiffusion in multicomponent n-alkane mixtures
(Nature Research (Part of Springer Nature), 2017)
Compositional grading within a mixture has a strong impact on the evaluation of the pre-exploitation distribution of hydrocarbons in underground layers and sediments. Thermodiffusion, which leads to a partial diffusive ...
Thermophoresis as a technique for separation of nanoparticle species in microfluidic devices
(Elsevier Masson SAS, 2020)
This paper presents numerical studies of thermophoresis approach for separation of nanoparticles in liquid media. We simulated the thermophoresis process to test it as a method of separation of particles in suspension. At ...
Stability analysis under thermogravitational effect
(Elsevier Masson SAS, 2020)
In the present work, an interferometric unsteady analysis of the thermogravitational technique was for the first time attempted in a paralelepipedic microcolumn
using binary mixtures with negative Soret coefficients. In ...
Thermodiffusion in Ternary Mixtures of Water/Ethanol/Triethylene Glycol: First Report on the DCMIX3-Experiments Performed on the International Space Station
(Springer, 2018)
We report on thermodiffusion experiments conducted on the International Space Station ISS during fall 2016. These experiments are part of the DCMIX (Diffusion and thermodiffusion Coefficients Measurements in ternary Mixtures) ...
High magnetization FeCo nanoparticles for magnetorheological fluids with enhanced response
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021)
We present results concerning the fabrication of a new magnetorheological fluid with FeCo magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) as magnetic fillers. These NPs have been fabricated by using the chemical reduction technique and show ...
The Soret coefficients of the ternary system water/ethanol/triethylene glycol and its corresponding binary mixtures
(Springer, 2021)
Thermodiffusion in ternary mixtures is considered prototypic for the Soret effect of truly multicomponent systems. We discuss ground-based measurements of the Soret coefficient along the binary borders of the Gibbs triangle ...
Influence of the test-chamber shape on the performance of conductometric gas sensors
(Elsevier, 2022)
In this article, CFD simulations results are presented as a key tool to the comprehension of the target gas concentration evolution in a test chamber, at different working conditions. The simulation results are compared ...
Design and 3D printing of an electrochemical sensor for Listeria monocytogenes detection based on loop mediated isothermal amplification
(Elsevier, 2023)
The aim of this work is the design and 3D printing of a new electrochemical sensor for the detection of Listeria monocytogenes based on loop mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP). The food related diseases involve a ...
Contact angle measurement for LiBr aqueous solutions on different surface materials used in absorption systems
(Elsevier Ltd., 2018)
Wetting surface is a very important issue for the design of absorption applications and heat exchangers. The contact angle is deemed essential in wettability studies; However, LiBr aqueous solution contact angle studies ...
