Abstract

The application of an extraction column model which takes into account the influence of the forward mixing model is brought forward by generation of values of the mass transfer and axial dispersion coefficients required by the model. Values of these coefficients were generated from solute concentration profile measurements in a rotary disc contactor (RDC). The use of the Handlos–Baron drop mass transfer model was justified. The resulting continuous phase transfer coefficients were found to be dependent largely on disc speed. The accuracy of the forward mixing model for kerosene–acetic acid–water system was adequately presented and explained by the axial dispersion coefficient.
