EQEX - Simple Equilibrium Stage Extractor

This is represented by a single well-mixed, constant volume, continuous flow extraction stage. [Pg.499]

As shown in Sec. 3.3.1.3, near equilibrium conditions can be obtained by choosing an arbitrarily high value for the mass transfer capacity constant Klu. [Pg.499]

5 Simulation Tools and Examples of Chemical Engineering Processes [Pg.500]

Vary the system model parameters and see how these affect the time to steady state [Pg.500]

Compare the residence time for the L phase, Vl/L with the time constant for mass transfer, 1/KLa. Maintain a constant ratio of these two time constants but vary the individual parameters. How is the approach to steady state influenced by these changes [Pg.500]

The separate phase balances form the dynamic model. [Pg.540]

Compare the residence time for the X phase, Vi/L with the time constant [Pg.542]
