Abstract
In the binary system of n-heptane and water the mechanism of liquid-liquid separation was investigated experimentally. The effects of the mixing time, temperature and phase ratio on phase separation were examined. The drop sizes were estimated, using photographic measurements. Based on present experimental data, the following empirical equation for predicting separation characteristics was produced:
