The aim of this project is to develop an understanding of how organic drops behave in a water phase. This would enable a new generation of more detailed mechanistic models to be used to optimise the performance of Australia’s large investment in solvent extraction technology. The solvent extraction industry is undergoing a transformation with the introduction of short-contact-time contactors to reduce solvent inventory and a change to more sustainable solvents. The project aims to develop efficient and innovative contactors for this industry and to develop confidence in the application of new contactor technology offering enhanced competitive performance to Australia's minerals industry.

该项目的目的是加深对有机液滴在水相中的行为的了解。这将使新一代更详细的机械模型能够用于优化澳大利亚在溶剂萃取技术方面的大量投资的性能。随着短接触时间接触器的引入以减少溶剂库存以及转向更可持续的溶剂，溶剂萃取行业正在经历转型。该项目旨在为该行业开发高效、创新的接触器，并增强人们对新接触器技术应用的信心，从而增强澳大利亚矿产行业的竞争力。
