What is liquid-liquid extraction?
Liquid-Liquid Extraction (LLE), also known as solvent extraction, is a method of separating compounds or metal complexes based on their relative solubilities in two different, immiscible liquids, usually water (polar) and an organic solvent (non-polar) . There is a net transfer of one or more species from one liquid to another liquid phase, generally from aqueous to organic. The transfer is driven by the chemical potential, i. H. once the transfer is complete, the overall system of chemical components that make up the solutes and the solvents are in a more stable configuration (lower free energy). The solvent enriched with solutes is called the extract. The feed solution, which is depleted in solutes, is referred to as the raffinate.
