Recent advancements in ion concentration polarization

Recent advancements in ion concentration polarization.

In this minireview, we discuss advancements in ion concentration polarization (ICP)-based preconcentration, separation, desalination, and dielectrophoresis that have been made over the past three years. ICP as a means of controlling the distribution of the ions and electric field in a microfluidic device has rapidly expanded its areas of application. Recent advancements have focused on the deve...

Recent Advancements in Speech Enhancement

Speech enhancement is a long standing problem with numerous applications ranging from hearing aids, to coding and automatic recognition of speech signals. In this survey paper we focus on enhancement from a single microphone, and assume that the noise is additive and statistically independent of the signal. We present the principles that guide researchers working in this area, and provide a det...

Recent Situtation and Future Advancements

50 years are an extended epoch to consider for developments in epileptology. Th erefore only a selection of important milestones can be covered with regard to available space. After looking back to the past current activities and important aspects for future research will be discussed. Concerning epidemiology one of the fi rst important studies investigated the role of precipitation of epilepti...

Capillarity ion concentration polarization as spontaneous desalting mechanism

To overcome a world-wide water shortage problem, numerous desalination methods have been developed with state-of-the-art power efficiency. Here we propose a spontaneous desalting mechanism referred to as the capillarity ion concentration polarization. An ion-depletion zone is spontaneously formed near a nanoporous material by the permselective ion transportation driven by the capillarity of the...
