Summary on Grant Application Form
To develop and study a novel clarifier for the concentration of fine particle, dilute suspensions. The device uses an acoustic force field to divert particles into a concentrate stream, and is potentially useful for shear sensitive particles for which few technical alternatives are available for concentrating.
