Electrokinetic driven flow can be used as an active technique to improve mixing in various devices. This technique is employed to mix fluid samples rapidly and efficiently in different geometries. There are numerous numerical and experimental studies on this subject in the literature. This paper is review of the studies performed on electrokinetic mixing techniques including electroosmosis, electrophoresis, and dielectrophoresis to discuss about capabilities, shortcomings, and various industrial and engineering applications of this method. Based on this survey, conclusions and suggestions for future works are provided.
