THE CHALLENGE

P is essential for life

is critical to ensure food security

but intensified use of P degrades water quality all over the

world increasingly is a limited and complex resource to

produce,

so we have the responsibility to make an efficient use of P

and to recycle and reuse P to close its loops.

SOLVENT EXTRACTION FUNDAMENTALS

There are two immiscible liquids.

Aqueous at bottom contains the

valuable material.

By gentile agitation of both contact

surface increases. Valuable material

is transferred from heavy to light

phase by chemical forces.

After liquid- liquid settlement and

separation valuable material is

reported into light phase.

SOLVENT EXTRACTION VS ALTERNATIVE TECHNOLOGIES

• Just One Line vs Several IR/MF Lines.

• Higher Throughput per SX Line vs IR/MF Line

• Higher SX Efficiency due to IR/MF Operation by Loading and

Elution Cycles

• Better and more Reliable Product Quality

• SX Continuous vs IR/MF Cycles Operations
