Abstract
Disclosed is a sieve tray extraction column useful for performing liquid-liquid extractions. The sieve trays are made in the form of tubular members with an open top end and one or more openings in the bottom end and in the side of the member. Each tubular member is of smaller diameter than the column and is sealed to the inside of the column wall at the top end only. An annular space is thus defined between each tubular member and the inner column wall. In this structure the annular space functions as an upcomer or downcomer for passage of the solvent liquid through the column.
