In one embodiment, a dust collecting apparatus includes a container configured to contain a fluid that includes particles to be collected. The apparatus further includes one or more sound sources configured to generate, in the container, a standing sound wave including at least one node to trap the particles in a vicinity of the node. The one or more sound sources are configured to generate the standing sound wave so that the node does not contact a wall face of the container or contacts a predetermined portion of the wall face of the container. The predetermined portion is formed of a member that prevents the particles from leaving from the node located in a vicinity of the predetermined portion.

Device for separating liquid from a gas, wherein the device (11) comprises two liquid separators (12a, 12b) arranged in series, wherein the liquid separators (12a, 12b) are configured to allow a gas stream from an outlet (14a) of the first liquid separator (12a) to an inlet (13b) of the second liquid separator (12b), characterized in that means (18) are provided for creating radial standing waves in the gas stream.

This disclosure relates to aggregating, neutralizing, and filtering ultra-fine particles in fluids such as air and water. Fluid may be drawn from an ambient environment into a neutralization chamber. Within the neutralization chamber, particles in the fluid may be agglomerated. An acoustic field may be applied to the fluid to agglomerate the particles. The agglomerated particles may be exposed to light. The light may denature or deactivate the agglomerated particles. The agglomerated and inert particles maybe passed through a filter. After agglomeration and neutralization, the fluid may be released back into the ambient environment.
