Why liquid-liquid extraction
ï‚— When difference in Boiling Point of two component is very low.
ï‚— For azeotropic mixtures.
ï‚— To avoid thermal decomposition.
ï‚— It consumes Lower Energy than the distillation.
ï‚— If proportion of one component is very less then other and it have high
boiling point.
1- Separation is done according to different in solubility .
2- Problem with L-L extraction that we mix then we separate.

Types of ternary systems
1) Formation of one pair of partially soluble liquids.
[closed ternary diagram]
2) Formation of two pair of partially soluble liquids.
[open ternary diagram]
Formation of one pair of partially miscible
liquids
ï‚¢ AC&BC are completely soluble.
ï‚¢ AB is partially soluble.
ï‚¢ M will be separated to two
compositions; N & L
ï‚¢ If C is solvent for A so as C increases,
L goes up till P(Plait Point) at which
A,B & C become one phase. This is
done due to the increase in mutual
solubility between A&B.

Formation of one pair of partially miscible

ï‚— Equilibrium relation.
Effects:
1) Effect of TEMPERATURE
2) Effect of PRESSURE

Formation of two pair of partially miscible
liquids
ï‚— A-B & C-B are partially soluble.
ï‚— A is completely soluble in C.
Formation of two pair of partially miscible
liquids
Effects:
1) Effect of TEMPERATURE
2) Effect of PRESSURE
Multi Component System
ï‚— In this type of system there are >=4 components in which 2 are solute and 2
are solvents. So it is known as multi component system.
ï‚— E.g: the distribution of formic acid and acetic acids between the partly
soluble solvents water and carbon tetrachloride. But this type of system
representation requires 3D graph which is very difficult to understand. So
Generally it is not used.
Choice Of Solvent
1) Selectivity
2) Distribution Co-efficient
3) Insolubility of solvent
4) Recoverability
5) Density
6) Interfacial Tension
7) Chemical Reactivity
8) Viscosity, Vapor Pressure, Freezing Point
9) Non Toxic, Non Flammable, & low cost.
Stage definition
ï‚— It is a mechanical device or series that allow the solvent
& solution to contact and separate. So; stage is:

EQUIPMENT:
ï‚— Different mechanical devices are used in liquid-liquid extraction such as:
1. The simplest is a mixer/settler, or decanter, in which the two liquid phases
are separated.
2. Plate towers, packed towers, and mechanically agitated mixers (rotating
disk contactors)
Extractor/stripper process
1. Mixer/ Settler
Mixing vessel with variable-speed turbine
agitator
Horizontal gravity-settling vessel
