Latest Patents
Loren C. Schrier holds a patent for a "Solvent extraction method and apparatus for recovering analytes." This invention introduces an improved liquid/liquid solvent extraction method that utilizes an external electrode to create an electric field within an extraction cell. This electric field is designed to shatter aqueous sample droplets flowing within a non-conductive solvent. The external electrode is in close contact with the exterior surface of the insulative cell wall, ensuring that there is no direct electrical contact between the electrode and the internal liquids. A sample interface detector is incorporated to detect the interface between the two liquids as they flow out from the cell, facilitating their separate collection. The detection of the interface is achieved by coupling electrical pulses into the flowing liquid, which causes ionization charge/discharge cycles in the conductive aqueous sample, while the non-conductive solvent remains unaffected.
