Centrifugal contactors represent an advanced class of equipment optimising liquid–liquid extraction through the use of centrifugal forces to enhance mass transfer between immiscible phases.

Liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) is a vital separation technique in which components are partitioned between two immiscible liquids based on differences in solubility. This process underpins a wide ...

This is applicable to all oil in water measurements that employ liquid-liquid extraction, whether the analysis is performed by UV, gravimetric or infrared. If this type of emulsion cannot be broken by ...
