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"?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
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.
