Separation of anisole and water
« on: April 09, 2015, 04:05:08 PM »
Hello,

non-chemical engineer. What techniques are available for separating a well mixed combination of anisole and water. The two are immiscible, but with very similar densities.

Do they form an azeotrope? What sorts of levels are you talking about?

Leave 'em alone. They separate by themselves.
