Interesting applications / Enrichment materials
These first 3 readings seem old, but they are still relevant. For example, the same principles are used in modern bioseparations.
- A comprehensive article on liquid-liquid extraction which describes the various units available.
- A reading on solvent extraction principles
- A general article on liquid liquid extractors.
- An interesting reading on safety in liquid-liquid extraction plants: a further reason for counter-current operations to minimize solvent use.
- Here's another instructor's slides on the same topic - sometimes a different point of view helps to understand.
