MODELING OF LIQUID-LIQUID EXTRACTION COLUMN: A REVIEW

Mathematical models are reviewed for different types of commonly used extraction columns, viz. pulsed sieve plate column, rotating disc contactor, Kuhni column, spray column, Scheibel extractor, packed column, Oldshue-Rushton contactor and reciprocating plate column. In addition, numerical techniques, process simulators and some estimation methods for model parameters have also been included. The review cites over 120 references.
