CHAPTER 6 MECHANICAL-PHYSICAL SEPARATION PROCESSES Introduction Separation Processes Many chemical processes materials and biological substances occur as mixtures of different components in the gas‚ liquid‚ or solid phase. In order to separate or remove one or more of the component from its original mixture‚ it must be contacted with another phase. The two-phase pair can be gas-liquid‚ gas-solid‚ liquid‚ or liquid-solid. Absorption When the two contacting phases are a gas and a liquid

extracting lipids or fats from foods‚ both the method as well as the solvents chosen to perform a complete‚ or close to complete extraction are important. If these two elements are not taken into consideration‚ the extraction may not be complete‚ or the extract may contain a large quantity of undesired impurities. The natural fats and oil are mixtures of glycerides of fatty acids. Fats and oils are naturally occurring organic compounds which belong to a large group of water insoluble substances called

Discussion: Extraction and crystallization- The purpose of this lab was to extract and crystallize compounds in a mixture using acids and bases. 1 gram of the unknown was dissolved into 30 mL of ethyl acetate. The mixture was then transferred to a separatory funnel. Using aqueous solutions of different pH we were able to separate organic acids‚ bases and neutral compounds from each other. Using three 10 mL portions of HCl‚ we reacted the HCl with the base in solution. This made it possible to

Extraction Report For experience 4c we were supposed to determine which one is the organic layer in three different tubes that has two layers. To determine which is aqueous (water) or organic‚ I used the technique of adding droplets of water to each tube. If the layer is water‚ then the drops of added water will dissolve in the aqueous layer and increase it’s volume. If the added water form droplets or a new layer‚ then it is the organic layer. Tube 1 (water and n-butyl chloride)‚ after adding

devising a separation and purification scheme for a three component mixture. The overall objective is to isolate in pure form two of the three compounds. This was done using extraction‚ solubility‚ crystallization and vacuum filtration. The experiment was carried out two times‚ both of which were successful. Background Information: This experiment combined all the knowledge of the previous labs performed throughout the semester. An unknown mixture containing an organic acid or base and

Butil‚ Conrad G. Leonida‚ Renee Theresa ABSTRACT This activity observes the DNA present in onion (Allium cepa) and human cheek cells by extracting it with the addition of lysis buffer and chilled ethanol. The lysis buffer is prepared from squeezed onion mixed

Experiment 3 Liquid-Liquid Extraction Discussion The success of extracting each compound out of the solution can be seen in the IR graphs for each substance. For ethyl 4-aminobenzoate‚ the N-H‚ C=O and C-O are distinguishable in their proper wavenumber positions. The amino N-H stretch was found between 3224 cm-1 and 3423 cm-1. The C=O was found at 1681 cm-1 and the C-O was at 1280 cm-1. The IR for benzoic acid also displays its significant bonds‚ O-H and C=O. The O-H was between 2566 and

Extraction of metals The History of Metals. Metals have been used by people for many thousands of years. Gold and silver‚ found as native metal‚ were used both as jewellery and as a status symbol - nothing new there. These metals were known in the Stone Age‚ but gold and silver are too soft to be used as tools. The first really useful metal to be discovered was bronze. This began the Bronze Age. Bronze was used extensively for tools and weapons in Asia and Africa from 4‚500 B.C. (6‚500 years

Objective: To extract caffeine from tea powder using polar - nonpolar solvent extraction technique. Theory: The technique used to separate an organic compound from a mixture of compounds is called Extraction. Extraction process selectively dissolves one or more of the mixture compounds into a suitable solvent. The solution of these dissolved compounds is referred to as the Extract. Here the organic solvent dichloromethane is used to extract caffeine from an aqueous extract of tea leaves
