Jasmone is a valuable material in the perfume industry and used in many soaps and cosmetics. Suppose we are recovering this material from a water suspension of jasmine flowers by an extraction with benzene. The local mass transfer coefficient for jasmone in benzene is 3.0 x 10-4 cm/s. The local mass transfer coefficient of jasmone in the water is 2.4 x 10-3 cm/s. Jasmone is 170 times more soluble in benzene than water (this is the partition coefficient).Determine the overall resistance based on the water phase. What is the correct driving force to be used with this resistance? Determine the overall resistance based on the benzene phase. What is the correct driving force to be used with this resistance?
