5. Design and operation of industrial liquid-liquid extraction units
5.1 Industrial plant control and instrumentation
A steady-state liquid-liquid extraction plant will meet the specifications of the process diagram if the parameters of the system equilibria (flow rates, concentrations, free acidities or pH, temperatures and pressures), as well as those that determine the efficiency of the contactors (residence times and agitation intensities), are kept constant .
From a hydraulic point of view, maintaining counter-current phase circulation requires not only the exclusion of uncontrollable...
