Performance of demulsions: Entrainment problems in solvent extraction
No full textA method for predicting performance of demulsions involves the relationship between the phase separation operation/method and the secondary liquid-liquid contact system, taking into account limitations of the equipment or plant capacity and maximal permitted content of residual emulsion or wanted sensitivity. This work conveys the knowledge organization or the process synthesis, main objective of which is to enable a choice in and design of the phase separation method, equipment and/or plant conception. The particular problem considered in this paper is the process synthesis in treatment of entrainment in liquid-liquid extraction. The experimental results obtained in the pilot plant for uranium recovery from wet phosphoric acid were used as the comparable source
