In order to enhance the liquid-liquid mixing during the extraction process, various types of extraction towers have been developed in the prior art, including sieve plate pulse extraction towers, plate ring pulse extraction towers, packed extraction towers, and turntable towers. All kinds of extraction towers have enhanced dispersion as the optimization goal.
