    Hi guys, I am a bit confused on how to utilize the absorption column under liquid-liquid extractor mode. Here is quick summary of what I want to accomplish: a feed stream in, a solvent stream in, a mixture stream as extract out, and wastes as raffinate out. It's something quick and dirty, I looking more for the schematic at this moment. However, I do not know how to set it up. What should i put for the number of stages? Also what exactly is "side draws"?

    I quickly created a sample where ethanol and methanol is extracted from water by toluene.
    Sidedraws: this means that you have an outlet stream at a certain stage where you remove somethin from liquid or vapour phase.
