摘要:
Liquid-liquid extraction process with the recommended low interfacial tension chemical system of butanol-succinic acid-water was performed in a two impinging-jets contacting device (TIJCD), working continuously with opposed impinging jets. A range of extraction efficiency of 58-96% was achieved under different conditions. Overall volumetric mass transfer coefficient and specific power input criteria clearly indicate the great performance capability of TIJCD. An increase in nozzle diameter and/or jets force results an efficiency enhancement, while increase in inter-nozzle distance leads the efficiency diminish. The overall volumetric mass transfer coefficient was satisfactorily correlated in the form of ordinary and dimensionless correlations.
