Riding An Acoustic Wave Into The Future Of Single Use
6/13/2014
If you’ve ever walked out into an ocean, you’ve felt the impact of waves propagating on the surface of the water. Hit from the back and you fall forward; hit from the front and you’ll find yourself face first in the water. However, in very choppy waters, you could potentially get hit from the front by waves coming from the sea, while simultaneously being hit from the back by waves bouncing off of the shore line. If these waves are timed correctly, the equal and opposite forces could trap you in a stable position; this is referred to as a standing wave. FloDesign Sonic uses a specially-designed, 3D version of a standing wave to act as an invisible barrier (or filter) to catch cells while the remaining liquid and materials pass through. The cells group inside the standing wave and precipitate out of the fluid flow, where FloDesign Sonic uses specially-designed fluidics to continuously draw off the concentrated cells.
