Devices, systems, and their methods of use, for generating droplets are provided. One or more geometric parameters of a microfluidic channel can be selected to generate droplets of a desired and predictable droplet size.

Provided are a device and a method for adjusting the number and size of air bubbles, more particularly, a device and a method for adjusting the number and size of air bubbles, capable of mixing a liquid and gas to form an air bubble mixture or air bubble water (water containing air bubble) and freely adjusting the number and size of air bubbles contained in the formed air bubble mixture to thereby be used in various fields.

The present invention relates to a spraying assembly comprising an injection device, a first hydraulic circuit for conveying carrier liquid to a spray nozzle, the first hydraulic circuit comprising, upstream of the spray nozzle, an injection section, a second hydraulic circuit for conveying the active substance to the injection device, under an injection pressure greater than the carrier liquid circulation pressure, the injection device comprising a direct dosing interface comprising a plurality of through-holes in the injection section of the first hydraulic circuit, and the injection device further comprising at least one corresponding actuator configured to open or close each through-hole so as to allow a determined dosing of active substance to pass through at least one open hole to be injected into the carrier liquid stream.

An apparatus for creating an emulsion, including: an inlet chamber; a channel comprising a length L, height H, an inlet and an outlet, and walls having surface energies, the channel inlet adjacent to the inlet chamber. The channel inlet walls have a first surface energy and the outlet walls have a second surface energy substantially different from the first surface energy. An outlet chamber is disposed adjacent to the channel outlet, the outlet chamber height H2 being greater than the channel height H.

The present invention provides modular devices and systems for infusing gas into a liquid and methods of manufacture and use thereof. In accordance with an embodiment, a modular device for infusing gas into a liquid is provided. The modular device comprises a plurality of microporous hollow fibers, and a cap covering open ends of the microporous hollow fibers. The cap is configured to receive a gas into an opening and to deliver the gas into the open ends of the microporous hollow fibers. The cap is further configured to removably mount the modular device to a fixture. A system for infusing gas into a liquid may include one or more of the modular gas infusion devices configured to be removably mounted to a fixture such that the microporous hollow fibers are within a hollow cavity. The hollow cavity includes a first opening configured to receive a liquid and a second opening configured to discharge the liquid infused with a gas. Because the system is modular, it is economical to manufacture, scale to different application requirements and to maintain.

Devices, systems, and their methods of use, for generating droplets are provided. One or more geometric parameters of a microfluidic channel can be selected to generate droplets of a desired and predictable droplet size.

The present invention generally relates to the production of fluidic droplets. Certain aspects of the invention are generally directed to systems and methods for creating droplets by flowing a fluid from a first channel to a second channel through a plurality of side channels. The fluid exiting the side channels into the second channel may form a plurality of droplets, and in some embodiments, at very high droplet production rates. In addition, in some aspects, double or higher-order multiple emulsions may also be formed. In some embodiments, this may be achieved by forming multiple emulsions through a direct, synchronized production method and/or through the formation of a single emulsion that is collected and re-injected into a second microfluidic device to form double emulsions.
