Holdup of dispersed phase in a mixer-settler extraction column.

Prediction of Dispersed Phase Holdup in the Kühni Extraction Column Using a New Experimental Correlation and Artificial Neural Network

In this work, the dispersed phase holdup in a Kühni extraction column is predicted using intelligent methods and a new empirical correlation. Intelligent techniques, including multilayer perceptron and radial basis functions network are used in the prediction of the dispersed phase holdup. To design the network structure and train and test the networks, 174 sets of experimental data are used. T...

Prediction of Dispersed Phase Holdup in Scheibel Extraction Columns by a New Correlation

In this study, the effect of operating parameters on dispersed phase holdup in liquid-liquid extraction process has been investigated. Three chemical systems (Toluene/Water, Butyl acetate/Water, and n-Butanol/Water) were utilized and holdup was considered in a wide range of interfacial tensions through a Scheibel extraction column. Various rotor speeds were examined on the certain velocities of...

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

Dispersion Parameters and Effect of Impeller Speed, Holdup and Volume Fraction of Dispersed Phase on Separation Efficiency, Mass Transfer Coefficient of Dispersed Phase and Distribution Coefficient on Mixer-Settler Set

An experimental study has been conducted on the hydrodynamics of a stage mixer-settler to obtain an appropriate design. In this paper several tests was performed to investigate full factorial design of experiments. Since each test was repeated seven times, the repeatability of the test was confirmed (P=1 bar and T=25 °C). Sauter diameter was determined by photographing both the mix...
