  Abstract: Reactive extraction is a promising technique for the recovery of organic acids from aqueous streams. Succinic acid, is a white, odorless solid dicarboxylic acid, and is a precursor for some specialized polyesters. Present paper presents an optimization study of reactive extraction of succinic acid equilibrium studies from aqueous solutions using Tri-n-octylamine in 1-Decanol using response surface methodology including reaction kinetics in a stirred cell. Extraction efficiency (Y), a response function …
