Acoustically excited microstructure for on-demand fouling mitigation in a microfluidic membrane filtration device

Membrane separation is widely used in food, pharmaceutical and water treatment industries but suffers a longstanding challenge of fouling. In this article, acoustically excited microstructures are demonstrated as a new mechanism to mitigate membrane fouling and remove cake layer aggregations formed...
