Serpentine Structures For Continuous Flow Particle Separations

View page
US Patent:
8276760, Oct 2, 2012
Filed:
Nov 30, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/606458
Inventors:
Meng H. Lean - Santa Clara CA, US
Ashutosh Kole - Sunnyvale CA, US
Jeonggi Seo - Albany CA, US
Assignee:
Palo Alto Research Center Incorporated - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
B03B 5/00
US Classification:
209155, 209208, 209210
Abstract:
An improved technique for particle separation is provided. A serpentine structure is utilized in a continuous fluid flow environment to allow for suitable separation of particles to occur in a manner that does not require external application of forces to initiate the separation. The geometry of the serpentine structure and associated forces generated in connection with fluid flow therein suffice.

Particle Extraction Methods And Systems For A Particle Concentrator

View page
US Patent:
20080053828, Mar 6, 2008
Filed:
Aug 30, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/468523
Inventors:
Jurgen H. Daniel - San Francisco CA, US
Meng H. Lean - Santa Clara CA, US
Robert Matusiak - Sunnyvale CA, US
Armin R. Volkel - Mountain View CA, US
Gregory P. Schmitz - Los Gatos CA, US
Huangpin B. Hsieh - Mountain View CA, US
Ashutosh Kole - Sunnyvale CA, US
Assignee:
PALO ALTO RESEARCH CENTER INCORPORATED - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
B03C 5/02
US Classification:
204547, 204643
Abstract:
Method and Systems for extracting a concentrated sample of particles include priming a concentrate reservoir by passing a fluid through the concentrate reservoir to remove air. The concentrate reservoir has a first end with an opening and second end with an opening. The second end of the concentrate reservoir is closed off, and particles are accumulated within the concentrate reservoir by use of a particle concentrator. Thereafter, the first end of the concentrate reservoir is closed off, isolating the concentrate reservoir from particle concentrator, from which the particles were obtained. The second end of the concentrate reservoir is thereafter opened, and the particles of the concentrated sample in the concentrate reservoir are extracted to a sample capture reservoir through the second end opening of the concentrate reservoir.

Particle Separation And Concentration System

US Patent:
20080128331, Jun 5, 2008
Filed:
Nov 30, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/606460
Inventors:
Meng H. Lean - Santa Clara CA, US
Jeonggi Seo - Albany CA, US
Ashutosh Kole - Sunnyvale CA, US
Norine E. Chang - Menlo Park CA, US
Scott Jong Ho Limb - Palo Alto CA, US
International Classification:
B03B 5/00
US Classification:
209155
Abstract:
This invention is based on size and mass separation of suspended particles, including biological matter, which are made to flow in a spiral channel. On the spiral sections, the inward directed transverse pressure field from fluid shear competes with the outward directed centrifugal force to allow for separation of particles. At high velocity, centrifugal force dominates and particles move outward. At low velocities, transverse pressure dominates and the particles move inward. The magnitudes of the two opposing forces depend on flow velocity, particle size, radius of curvature of the spiral section, channel dimensions, and viscosity of the fluid. At the end of the spiral channel, a parallel array of outlets collects separated particles. For any particle size, the required channel dimension is determined by estimating the transit time to reach the side-wall. This time is a function of flow velocity, channel width, viscosity, and radius of curvature. Larger particles may reach the channel wall earlier than the smaller particles which need more time to reach the side wall. Thus a spiral channel may be envisioned by placing multiple outlets along the channel. This technique is inherently scalable over a large size range from sub-millimeter down to 1 μm.

Device And Method For Dynamic Processing In Water Purification

US Patent:
20090114601, May 7, 2009
Filed:
Nov 7, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/936753
Inventors:
Meng H. Lean - Santa Clara CA, US
Jeonggi Seo - Albany CA, US
Armin R. Volkel - Mountain View CA, US
Ashutosh Kole - Sunnyvale CA, US
Huangpin B. Hsieh - Mountain View CA, US
Nitin S. Parekh - Los Altos CA, US
Norine E. Chang - Menlo Park CA, US
International Classification:
B01D 36/02
C02F 1/52
US Classification:
210723, 210205
Abstract:
A transformational approach to water treatment is provided that incorporates membrane-free filtration with dynamic processing of the fluid to significantly reduce treatment times, chemical cost, land use, and operational overhead. This approach provides hybrid capabilities of filtration, together with chemical treatment, as the water is transported through various spiral stages.

Assignee:
PALO ALTO RESEARCH CENTER INCORPORATED - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
B03B 5/00
US Classification:
209155
Abstract:
A method and system for splitting fluid flow in an outlet of a particle separation device is provided. The system may include static or passive mechanisms or subsystems.

Appl. No.:
12/120093
Inventors:
Meng H. Lean - Santa Clara CA, US
Jeonggi Seo - Albany CA, US
Ashutosh Kole - Sunnyvale CA, US
Armin R. Volkel - Mountain View CA, US
Assignee:
PALO ALTO RESEARCH CENTER INCORPORATED - Palo Alto CA

Method And System For Seeding With Mature Floc To Accelerate Aggregation In A Water Treatment Process

View page
US Patent:
20100072142, Mar 25, 2010
Filed:
Sep 19, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/234373
Inventors:
Meng H. Lean - Santa Clara CA, US
Armin R. Volkel - Mountain View CA, US
Ashutosh Kole - Sunnyvale CA, US
Jeonggi Seo - Albany CA, US
Assignee:
PALO ALTO RESEARCH CENTER INCORPORATED - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
C02F 1/52
B01D 35/30
US Classification:
210713, 210724, 210715, 2101953, 210199, 210205
Abstract:
A system and method that uses mature floc as seed particles to promote aggregation in a water treatment process is provided. The seed particles do not need to be recovered as they separate out with the waste steam after a spiral separation. One implementation is to prepare the mature floc off-line and inject periodically into the buffer tank, as needed. Another implementation is to tap into the more mature floc downstream and feedback, as needed, to the buffer tank.

Armin R. Volkel - Mountain View CA, US
Ashutosh Kole - Sunnyvale CA, US
Jeonggi Seo - Albany CA, US
Nitin S. Parekh - Los Altos CA, US
Assignee:
PALO ALTO RESEARCH CENTER INCORPORATED - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
C02F 1/52
C02F 1/66
US Classification:
210709, 210 88, 210219
Abstract:
A system and method for treatment of water. An inlet is operative to receive source water having particles therein. A spiral mixer has a defined spiral channel operative to mix the source water with a coagulant material and an alkalinity material. The spiral mixer is formed to perform in-line coagulation and flocculation processes within the defined spiral channel to form aggregated floc particles. A buffer tank is operative to receive the aggregated floc particles from the spiral mixer. Spiral separator segregates contents of the buffer tank into affluent and waste water that has the aggregated floc particles therein. An outlet is operative to provide a first path for the affluent, and a second path for the waste water having the aggregated floc particles.
