Dynamics of a Pump Mix Mixer-Settler

The Effects of Operational Parameters on the Efficiency of a Mixer-Settler Extractor

The effects and influences of various operational parameters on the efficiency of mixer-settlers are thoroughly studied in this paper. One of the most important factors in designing a mixer-settler is to obtain an optimum operational extraction and overall efficiency. These two factors are dependent on various parameters such as impeller shape, size and speed of impeller, baffle size, residence...

The Effects of a Surfactant Concentration on the Mass Transfer in a Mixer-Settler Extractor

The effects and influences of various parameters upon the efficiency and the overall volumetric mass transfer coefficients are important subjects to be studied in most liquid-liquid extraction processes. One of these important parameters is surface active agent (surfactant). In this paper, in order to study the effect of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) concentration on the efficiency and the a...

The Experimental Study of Effective Parameters on Mean Drop Size in a Mixer-Settler

Mean Drop Size and Drop Size Distribution in a Hanson Mixer-Settler Extraction Column

Investigating and Mathematical Correlation of the Presence Effect of Solute and Surfactant on Mean Drop size in a Mixer-Settler

In this paper, the effects of several factors such as surfactant concentration, solute concentration, impeller speed and holdup on the mean drop diameter ( ) during emulsification have been studied in a single-stage mixer-settler extractor. A video technique has been developed in order to measure drop size distribution in the mixing chamber using a digital camera. The results show decreases wi...
