    Abstract: A device that includes an integrated device and a heat dissipating device coupled to the integrated device. The heat dissipating device includes an electro-osmotic (EO) pump. The electro-osmotic (EO) pump includes a casing comprising a first opening and a second opening; a membrane located in the casing; an anode electrode; a cathode electrode; and a catalyst layer formed on a surface of the membrane. The membrane includes a plurality of channels. The electro-osmotic (EO) pump is configured to provide a fluid to flow from the first opening of the casing, through the plurality of channels of the membrane and out of the second opening of the casing. The catalyst layer is configured to recombine gas ions that are produced by the electro-osmotic (EO) pump.
