Liquid Liquid Extractor Manufacturers in India, & Suppliers in India

Concept Process Equipments, a liquid liquid extractor manufacturers, suppliers and exporters in India are providing the top quality of liquid liquid extractor that are highly demanding from large industrial sectors. It has ability to separate and purify the specific compounds from a mixture by utilizing the different solubilities of components in two liquids.

These are majorly used in pharmaceuticals, chemicals, food processing and environmental remediation. The involvement of new technologies helps for increase the productivity and performance and let’s checks out our multiple types, its benefits, and various applications!

Types of Extractors

  • Mixer-Settler Extractors: Mixer-settler extractors are commonly used in large-scale separation processes. They have two main parts: a mixer, where the two liquids that do not mix are combined, and a settler, where the liquids naturally separate because they have different densities. Recent improvements have focused on fine-tuning the time the liquids spend mixing, the speed at which they flow, and how well the separation works, all of which helps increase efficiency and reduce the amount of solvent needed.
  • Rotary Disc Contactors (RDC): RDCs use rotating discs inside a column to mix two liquids that do not normally blend. The spinning helps the liquids come into better contact with each other, which improves the efficiency of the separation process, making it ideal for handling large volumes.
  • Counter Current Extractors: In counter current extractors, the two liquids that don’t mix flow in opposite directions, which helps them stay in contact longer and improves the separation process. This design makes the extraction more efficient. In Rotating disc contactor , counter current extraction takes place.

Some unique features and benefits of our liquid liquid extractor

  • Separation Based on Preferential Solubility of Two Liquids: In processes that involve two liquids, like water and an organic solvent such as hexane, the separation of substances occurs because different materials dissolve more easily in one liquid than the other. Some substances will dissolve better in water, while others will dissolve more in the organic solvent. This difference in how substances dissolve is used to separate or isolate specific components from the mixture.
  • Continuous or Batch Processing: The process can be designed to operate in continuous or batch modes such as:
  • Continuous Processing: In continuous processing, the mixture is constantly fed into the system, and the separation happens without any breaks. This approach is commonly used in large-scale industries where there is a high volume of material to process. The steady flow makes the process more efficient and can increase production.
  • Batch Processing: In batch processing, the work is done in separate batches. This method is more flexible and is usually preferred when dealing with smaller amounts of material or when the process requires adjustments. It is also useful when the input changes over time, allowing the system to adapt as needed.
