This video presents an introduction to liquid-liquid extraction. By the end of this lecture you should be able to:

- List situations where liquid-liquid extraction might be preferred to distillation.
- Remember the difference between Type I and Type II ternary systems.
- Calculate single stage liquid-liquid extraction equilibria.

This video was recorded live in a large lecture.
