Liquid Liquid Extraction: partition coefficient
Acetaldehyde Water Furfural 16C to Acetic acid Water 4-Heptanone 25C
Liquid-liquid extraction design data from Perry's Section 15: partition coefficients K (wt% basis) for ~150 solute/solvent systems, Godfrey solvent miscibility numbers (polarity scale 1-31), interfacial tension by solvent class and in ternary systems, and extractor type selection data (features, production rates) for mixer-settlers, columns, and centrifugal extractors.
