Solvent Extraction: Classical and Novel Approaches

by Vladimir S Kislik I

Overview

The main challenge in modern solvent extraction separation is that most techniques are mainly empirical, specific and particular for narrow fields of practice and require a large degree of experimentation. Thisconcise and modernbook provides acomplete overview of both solvent extraction separation techniques andthe novel and unified competitive complexation/solvation theory. This novel and unified technique presented in the book provides a key fora preliminary quantitativeprediction ofsuitable extraction systemswithout experimentation, thus saving researchers time and resources.

• Analyzes and compares both classical and new competitive models and techniques
• Offers anovel and unified competitive complexation / solvation theory that permits researchersto standardize someparameters, which decreases the need for experimentation at R&D
• Presents examples of applications inmultiple disciplines such as chemical, biochemical, radiochemical, pharmaceutical and analytical separation
• Written by an outstanding scientist who is prolific in the field of separation science
