Abstract
Oil separation from oil/water mixed drop under a Lamb wave field is one of the emerging acoustofluidic technologies that integrate acoustics and microfluidics. In recent years, this technology has attracted significant attention due to its effective, fast, contactless, and pollution-free. It has been validated in the separation of oil/water mixture on different non-piezoelectric substrates and shows great potential in incompatible liquids applications. Here, we summarize our recent progress in this exciting field and show great potential in different applications. This review introduces the theories and mechanisms of oil/water mixed drop separation induced by Lamb waves, the applications of this technology in the separation of oil/water mixed drop, and discusses the challenges and prospects of this field.
