 Introduction to Extraction
Liquid-liquid extraction (also known as solvent
extraction) involves the separation of the
constituents (solutes) of a liquid solution by
contact with another insoluble liquid.

Solutes are separated based on their different

solubility in different liquids.
 The simplest liquid-liquid extraction involves only a
3 components system.

The solution which is to be extracted is called the

feed, and the liquid with which the feed is contacted
is the solvent.

The solvent-rich product of the operation is called the

extract, and the residual liquid from which solutes
has been removed is the raffinate.
 Applications of Extraction
Extraction processes are well suited to the petroleum
industry because of the need to separate heat-sensitive
liquid feeds.

Biochemical or pharmaceutical industry, where emphasis

is on the separation of antibiotics and protein recovery.

In the inorganic chemical industry, they are used to

recover high-boiling components such as phosphoric
acid, boric acid, and sodium hydroxide from aqueous
solutions.
 Examples of Extraction
Extraction of methyl acrylate from organic solution with
perchlor ethylene.

Extraction of benzyl alcohol from a salt solution with

toluene.

Removing of H2S from LPG with MDEA.

Extraction of methanol from LPG with water.

 Extraction is the process by which a solute is
transferred from one phase to a new phase.

Liquid-liquid extraction, also known as solvent

extraction and partitioning, is a method to separate
compounds based on their relative solubility's in two
different immiscible liquids, usually water and an
organic solvent.
