Comparison of Liquid-Liquid Extraction and Solid Phase Extraction of Mephedrone
… This experiment focused on comparing liquid-liquid extraction to solid phase extraction to determine if there was a difference and which was more efficient. Synthetic urine samples were spiked with mephedrone, extracted using both methods, and analyzed with GC-MS. Spiked synthetic …

Liquid-Liquid Extraction in Agitated Contactors Involving Droplet Coalescence and Redispersion
Rotary agitated liquid-liquid extractors have been classified in terms of the rate of energy imparted to the dispersed phase, and whether contact is stagewise or differential. In the high energy contactors a droplet coalescence-redispersion mechanism predominates, The literature pertaining to these …
