4. Different types of operation
The purpose of all these operations is to separate mixtures into their constituent parts. Several methodological divisions can be applied to them, according to :
on the one hand, the presence or absence of a segmentation of the device into individual cells or stages: in the first case, the device is compartmentalized; in the second case, the device operates with permanent contact (if, of course, two phases circulate in the device);
secondly, the organization of flows within the device.
It's this last point of view that we're developing now.
4.1 Simple operation
Intuitively easy to grasp, the notion of a simple operation is more difficult to...
