Liquid Liquid Extraction in Packed Tower.
Liquid Liquid Extraction in Packed Tower
The set-up consists of a glass column packed with Rasching rings.
Continuous counter current contacts between the solvent and solute
phases is made, which results into extract and raffinate streams. Flow
meters (Rotameters) are used to note the flow of solvent & solute
respectively. The continuous and dispersed phase streams are metered and
derived from separate containers. The total set-up is housed in a
well-designed rigid structure. The structure also supports tanks,
piping, Rotameters, panel and other units.
EXPERIMENTATION:
ØØ To determine overall mass transfer co-efficient based on continuous & dispersed phase.
ØØ To determine individual “Height of Transfer Unit” based on continuous & dispersed phase.
UTILITIES REQUIRED :
ØØ Compressed Air Supply at 2 Bar, 0.5 CFM.
ØØ Water Supply
ØØ Drain.
ØØ Required Chemicals & Laboratory Glassware.
