Dielectrophoretic levitation in the presence of shear flow : implications for colloidal fouling of filtration membranes

The ability of dielectrophoretic (DEP) forces created using a microelectrode array to levitate particles in a colloidal suspension is studied experimentally and theoretically. The experimental system employs microfabricated electrode arrays on a glass substrate to apply repulsive DEP forces on polys...

520 |a The ability of dielectrophoretic (DEP) forces created using a microelectrode array to levitate particles in a colloidal suspension is studied experimentally and theoretically. The experimental system employs microfabricated electrode arrays on a glass substrate to apply repulsive DEP forces on polystyrene latex particles suspended in an aqueous medium. A numerical model based on the convection-diffusion-migration equation is presented to calculate the concentration distribution of colloidal particles in shear flow under the influence of a repulsive DEP force field. The results obtained from the numerical simulations are compared against trajectory analysis results and experimental data. The results indicate that by incorporating ac electric field-induced DEP forces in a shear flow, particle accumulation and deposition on the flow channel surfaces can be significantly reduced or even completely averted. The mathematical model is then used to indicate how the deposition behavior is modified in the presence of a permeable substrate, representative of tangential flow membrane filtration operations. The results indicate that the repulsive dielectrophoretic (DEP) forces imparted to the particles suspended in the feed can be employed to mitigate membrane fouling in a cross-flow filtration process
