ABSTRACT:
High efficiency in liquid-liquid extraction operations, such as extracting mercaptans from hydrocarbons with caustic, is obtained over a wide range of flow rates through a single extraction column by the provision of an intermediate product drawoff means located between a downstream section of extraction trays having greatest efficiency at low throughputs and an upstream section of trays having peak efficiency at high throughputs. A second product stream is removed after passing through the low flow rate trays and is blended with the stream from the intermediate drawoff means.
