Operating Characteristics of Pulsed Plate Columns

Mean drop behavior in the standard liquid–liquid extraction systems on an L-shaped pulsed sieve-plate column: experiment and modeling

“…• More dispersed phase droplet accumulation at the end of the columns, as well as premature flooding. 20–33…”

“…1,12 It is expected that this class of columns will present more advantages and will perform better than compared to those with the horizontal or vertical extraction columns in the applications with region limitation. 23–28 In addition, its installation height and required surface area are less than those of vertical and horizontal columns. Finally, it has been shown that the energy intake of LPSPC is in the range of columns (vertical and horizontal).…”
