Abstract

The separation of closely boiling organic acid is discussed using dissociation extraction  techniques.  A  mathematical model is developed to calculate the separation factor in dissociation extraction process sho,ving good agreement with experimental data. Important system variables are the concentration of the solutes, ratios of solutes in the organic phase  and the solvent  used . Experimental  data is presented  to show the affect of these parameters  on  the extraction of  cresols.
