You have 2 m3 of an aqueous solution, W, of your desired component A. However, the solution also contains an undesired byproduct B. You are to separate component A from component B by batch wise liquid-liquid extraction using 2 m3 of an organic solvent S. For A the distribution coefficient is 3, and for B the distribution coefficient is 0.25. Design a suitable process and calculate the yield and the product purity.
