The problem with the extractant~? ? ~?
Thread Content
What exactly does the net transfer capacity of an extractant mean?~? ? ~? ~? ~I earnestly ask all experts to share their insights.~~~！ ! ! ! `I’m really a bit confused! ! ! ~~~
-- It is the transmission amount after subtracting the no-load organic value from the loaded organic value. --
But the extractant manual specifies the net transfer capacity, maximum load, and back-extraction equilibrium point. However, isn’t the net transfer capacity plus the back-extraction equilibrium point equal to the maximum load? ? ? ~? ~? ~? ? ~
-- Your concept is flawed. Neither of them equals the maximum load; rather, they should be close to the extraction equilibrium point. --
The extraction isothermal equilibrium point is the point at which no more extraction can occur. So how is the maximum loading determined?```
-- The maximum load is determined by measuring the copper content in the organic phase after mixing the copper-containing solution with the organic phase several times following a standard procedure. --
Once it’s saturated, further extraction isn’t possible. Saturation means reaching the equilibrium point for extraction. ~? ? ~? ~?
-- It’s best for those upstairs to check the instructions for their extractant, or consult the manufacturer. The maximum load is measured according to the manufacturer’s standards. Currently, different manufacturers use different measurement standards; as a result, for the same extractant, the maximum load values determined by various manufacturers can vary. I wonder what extractant is being used upstairs? --
lix984n````Brother, thank you. In other words, the calculation is generally done based on the net transmission capacity; the maximum load is basically not needed in such cases```
