Abstract:Solvent extraction is an important industrial operation where several stages are needed for a desired separation. Microchannel based solvent extraction is widely reported for process intensification. However, all these works are confined to a single-stage extraction till date. For industrial application knowledge of multistage extraction is mandatory. This work focuses on the multistage microchannel extraction using a model mixture containing aqueous propionic acid. Four different single solvents were employed… Show more
