Solvent extraction method and apparatus

摘要: A method of solvent extraction for extracting a required component, such as metal value, dissolved or dispersed in support medium, constituting first phase, e.g. an aqueous by mixing the phase with extractant, second organic insoluble immiscible phase. The has greater affinity component order to extract from into After step, phases are subjected settling which caused flow counter-current fashion respect each other separate phases. Apparatus carrying out is also provided.
