A fitting for providing a fluid connection between a capillary and a fluidic conduit of a fluidic component, the fitting comprising a male piece and a female piece for connection with the male piece, wherein the male piece comprises a housing with a capillary reception configured for receiving the capillary, wherein a part of the capillary being received in the capillary reception is circumferentially covered by a sleeve, an elastic biasing mechanism being arranged at least partially within the housing, being configured for biasing the capillary against the female piece and being supported by the sleeve, and a locking mechanism being arranged at least partially within the housing and being configured for locking the capillary to the fitting.

A nanocarbon separation device includes a separation tank that is configured to accommodate a dispersion liquid including nanocarbons, a first electrode provided at an upper part in the separation tank, a second electrode provided at a lower part in the separation tank, an evaluation unit that is configured to evaluate a physical state or a chemical state of the dispersion liquid, and a determination unit that is configured to determine a separation state between metallic nanocarbons and semiconducting nanocarbons included in the dispersion liquid from the physical state or the chemical state.

A continuous chemical process is modified to allow parts thereto to be processed one quantum of matter at a time. This offers precision and efficiency beyond what is possible with the continuous mode. This Quantum Fluid Operation (QFO) is applied to basic unit operations: mixing, reacting, separating.

Disclosed is a sludge three-dimensional electroosmosis drainage reinforcing method based on a novel electric geotextile complex, and belongs to the field of soft soil foundation reinforcement. A novel electric geotextile complex is adopted, and a designed multidirectional three-dimensional continuous electroosmosis drainage method is adopted to perform rapid drainage reinforcement treatment on sludge, wherein the electric geotextile complex is prepared by combining fibers and conductive materials with a flexible drainage plate and has the effects of electric conductive, drainage, corrosion resistance and reinforcement. The proposed drainage method can realize the electroosmotic drainage in vertical and horizontal directions. Through layer by layer electroosmosis from bottom to top, the consolidation drainage effect of sludge in the lower layer can be enhanced by the increasing loading pressure from the upper sludge. After the vertical electroosmosis is completed, the method of exchange electrode is used to conduct horizontal electroosmosis in opposite direction.

The present disclosure describes a field flow fractionator including (1) a top plate assembly including a first non-corrosive material, at least three fluid fittings machined into the first non-corrosive material, a top cavity machined into the first non-corrosive material, and at least one top plate o-ring configured to form a horizontal geometry of a separation channel, (2) a membrane, (3) a bottom plate assembly including a second non-corrosive material, a bottom cavity machined into the second non-corrosive material, a frit configured to be placed into the bottom cavity, and at least one bottom plate o-ring configured to seal the bottom plate assembly to the top plate assembly, such that a top surface of the second non-corrosive material and a top surface of the frit are machined to be coplanar, and (4) where the top plate assembly, the membrane, and the bottom assembly define the separation channel.
