Miniaturised electrophoretic systems for distributed environmental sensing

该项目旨在开发新的低成本传感器，量化一系列水营养物质，用于连续自动化水监测。该项目旨在设计一种微流体盒，通过快速分离无机阴离子和阳离子来获得无颗粒样品进行分析。该墨盒旨在在便携式低成本，低重量，低功率仪器中操作。部署多个单元的目的是提供连续的数据流，描述不同水域内营养成分的变化，为环境模型提供数据，并为农业和水产养殖业提供最佳实践信息。

This project aims to develop new low-cost sensors to quantify a range of water nutrients for continuous automated water monitoring. The project aims to design a microfluidic cartridge to obtain a particulate-free sample for analysis by the rapid separation of inorganic anions and cations. The cartridge is intended to be operated in a portable low cost, low weight, low power instrument. The deployment of multiple units aims to provide a continuous data stream describing the changes in nutrient profiles within various waters, to feed into environmental models and inform best practice for agriculture and aquaculture industries.
