Liquid Extraction Unit

Liquid Extraction Unit that we manufacture, export and supply is also known as solvent extraction unit in which separation of constituents of a liquid solution is done by contacting it with another insoluble liquid. Our Liquid-Liquid Extraction Unit is for semi-batch operation. We make available our Liquid Extraction Unit in vessel size of 10, 20 and 50 ltr. It is suitable for operation under atmospheric pressure.

Functioning :

The extracted liquid is poured into an extraction vessel and the solvent is in a reboiler vessel and condensed in an overhead condenser. The condensed liquid is then collected in a reflux divider and passes through pipework to the extraction vessel. The pipework incorporates valves in order that the solvent can enter the extraction vessel at either the base or the top, depending on the elative densities of the solvent and liquid to be extracted. The solvent and the extracted liquid pass back to the reboiler and process is repeated unit the extraction is complete. The extraction vessel is then drained and the solvent evaporated from the reboiler vessel and collected in the extraction vessel enabling the two liquids to be drained from their respective vessels.
