Abstract

On using five hypothetical systems differing in the extent of mutual solubility of components, tie-line slope, and type of binodal curve, the effect is evaluated of systematic errors in the form of absolute deviation in the liquid-liquid equilibrium distribution concentrations on the accuracy of calculated number of theoretical stages of isothermal countercurrent extraction under various operating conditions.
