Spray Columns
ANTICO SprayX™ is designed for liquid-liquid extraction using dispersed phase droplets.
The working principle involves spraying one liquid into another to create fine droplets for mass transfer. The system includes a column, spray nozzles, and collection sections. It is used for simple extraction processes with low energy requirements. The design provides gentle mixing and low shear conditions. It is suitable for systems with low interfacial tension. The system operates continuously with minimal mechanical components. It offers low maintenance and operational simplicity. It is widely used in chemical and environmental applications. ANTICO SprayX™ provides cost-effective extraction solutions.
