TURBULENT SETTLING (TS) TECHNOLOGY FOR SOLVENT EXTRACTION

摘要

The distribution of local turbulent energy dissipation rates in the agitators of traditional mixer-settlers is extremely non-uniform. Bateman Advanced Technologies Ltd., together with Turbulent Technologies Ltd. have developed new technology for faster and more complete separation of liquids in solvent extraction plants and in particular for decreasing organic entrainment in the aqueous phase. We replace the agitator of the final mixing stage tank with a special mixing system that generates optimum turbulence distribution for efficient coalescence of the smallest droplets onto the surface of large and medium size droplets of the disperse phase.
