Advances in Solvent Extraction
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
Solvent extraction is a unit operation that separates a mixture of components that have different solubilities in a solvent, including liquid–liquid extraction, liquid–solid extraction, supercritical fluid extraction, microwave extraction, and other technical methods. Solvent extraction is characterized by high selectivity, good separation effects, and strong adaptability, and is mainly used in chemical separation, hydrometallurgy, food engineering, pharmaceuticals, waste treatment, and other industrial production processes. With the continuous progress of science and technology, solvent extraction technology will be increasingly applied in more fields, especially in environmental protection and industrial intelligence, with broad prospects.
