Abstract

A reactor for use with liquid phase reactants which separate into two liquid phases comprising a vertical vessel divided into an upper particle contacting-liquid retention chamber and a lower phase separation chamber by a horizontal liquid barrier. The two phases which form in the upper chamber are separately transferred to an appropriate level in the lower chamber through separate conduits to avoid remixing.
