This chapter addresses the modeling of interactions between dispersed and continuous phases in liquid-liquid extraction columns, which are commonly utilized in various industrial applications. The objective is to understand and predict the behavior of these phases during the extraction process, focusing on factors such as drop size distribution and flow conditions. We employ a two-equation turbulence model (k-ε) to depict the continuous phase flow under turbulent conditions, which is vital for ensuring efficient mass transfer in the system. The methodology includes deriving governing differential equations for continuity and momentum in a bi-dimensional cylindrical coordinate system, capturing the dynamics of the system. Results demonstrate the influence of turbulence characteristics and drop dynamics on the extraction efficiency, highlighting the significance of Reynolds stresses in the modeling process. This study provides valuable insights into the design and optimization of extraction equipment, supporting advancements in multiphase flow technology.
