Concept Process Equipment
Liquid – Liquid Extractor (LLE) is having shell with eccentric agitator giving a series of mixers and settlers. It is a mass transfer equipment where desirable component from liquid feed is get extracted in immiscible solvent which has greater affinity towards desirable component in feed. After extraction we get, solvent with desirable component as extract and feed with very little of desired component as raffinate. Continuous and dispersed phase is decided based on properties of two phases.
