By combining Sulzer’s Kühni agitating extraction columns with high-performance distillation units, OptimEXT enables peak mass-transfer performance combined with continuous solvent reuse for maximum efficiency, thereby cutting operational expenses.
The technology behind OptimEXT is used in over 700 systems operating worldwide across petrochemical, chemical, flavor, fragrance, and hydrometallurgy industries. Now combined within a modular, compact design, this integrated process solution delivers high selectivity and up to 99% solvent recovery rates.
“OptimEXT unifies our proven extraction products into one industry-leading solution,” said Tim Schulten, president of Sulzer Chemtech. “This launch is a celebration of our expertise that has enhanced product purity and reduced operating costs for many clients.”
