Chapter 13
Liquid-Liquid Extraction
13.0 Summary—Objectives
In this chapter, we consider what extraction is used for, develop McCabe-Thiele and Kremser methods for immiscible extraction, and explore graphical and computer methods for ternary partially miscible extraction systems. At the end of this chapter, you should be able to satisfy the following objectives:
Explain what extraction is and outline the types of equipment used
Apply the McCabe-Thiele and Kremser methods to immiscible extraction
For partially miscible extraction, plot extraction equilibria on a triangular diagram. Find the saturated extract, saturated raffinate, and conjugate lines
For partially miscible extraction, find the mixing point and solve single-stage and crossflow ...
