Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Aims and scope

Abstract

The kinetics of the methylene chloride extraction of petroleum products from water in a vessel with a turbine type of mechanical mixer is analyzed. The stage in which basic resistance to the process is concentrated is determined on the basis of theoretical calculations, and the coefficients of mass efficiency and transfer are also calculated.

The specific interphase surface, which forms when the contaminated water and solvent are mixed, is determined, and the total mass-transfer surface is also calculated, and the Murphy efficiency of the process is determined on the basis of experiments.
