A Review of Enhanced Micromixing Techniques in Microfluidics for the Application in Wastewater Analysis

Owing to new methods in agriculture, modern techniques and innovations in domestic activities and mushroom industrialization, rigorous studies are required to understand the wastewater ingredients and their toxicities so that minimization of harmful effects can be achieved. Micromixers may provide i...
