Abstract
Extraction efficiency is determined by mass and heat transfer processes in the liquid-solid system. In order to determine the optimal conditions for the extracting process, it is necessary to make up a mathematical model which reliably describes mass and heat exchange processes. In our study there are equations of mass and heat transfer, which occur during extracting process. They allow to determine numerically the process parameters and describe the resistance shares of external mass transfer much easier than in other methods of calculation. Further development of the outlined ideas leads to a new content of the concepts of kinetic coefficients of mass and heat transfer. To prove the accuracy of the calculation method, the share of external mass transfer resistance was calculated when extracting soybean oil with extraction gasoline and dichloroethane. The described calculation method for extracting process features may be used for designing extraction equipment, technology development and technological characterizing of process. Taking into account the identified system features, it is possible to reduce the solution to a particular form and mathematically describe a specific mass and heat exchange process. This makes it possible to determine the optimal conditions and increase the efficiency of the extracting process.
