Abstract: | The steady‐state method by measuring the concentration profile along the column height is an effective way, but it is a time and material consumption method for large extraction columns. In order to investigate the axial‐mixing and mass transfer performances in a large pulsed‐sieve‐plate extraction column with the diameter of 150mm, a two‐point dynamic method with mass transfer based on the diffusion model has been developed. The results proved that the two‐point dynamic method has the advantages of good accuracy, simple boundary equations and flexible sampling position over the traditional single‐point dynamic method. It is a reliable tool for studying the axial‐mixing and the mass transfer performances. |
