Description
Oxford Science and Practice of Liquid-Liquid Extraction Volume 1 Phase Equilibria Mass Transfer and Interfacial Phenomena 1992 Edition by John D. Thornton
This work presents an up-to-date account of some of the fundamental aspects of liquid-liquid extraction technology together with an account of extraction processes in a number of important industries.The work is divided into two parts. This volume is concerned with the thermodynamics of phase equilibria; mass transfer in liquid-liquid systems including the complicating role of interfacial turbulence; behaviour of liquid-liquid dispersions and the selection and design of countercurrent contactors for particular applications.
