2. Agitation of liquid-liquid systems
2.1 Issues
Bringing two immiscible liquids into contact is a relatively common operation in material processing industries such as the chemical, petrochemical and metallurgy industries, and takes place, for example, during suspension polymerization, chemical reactions and extraction. In these processes, the dispersion of one liquid in another in the form of droplets is the key to success, and requires special attention.
It is important to clarify the distinction between liquid-liquid systems (also known as liquid-liquid dispersions) and emulsions. The term "emulsion" is used to describe the state of a mixture of immiscible liquids for which long-term stability is sought, and which may confer certain properties of use on finished...
