As preliminary investigations on oxidative extraction in the alkyl anthraquinone process for the production of hydrogen peroxide, the air-agitated liquid extraction of hydrogen peroxide from the working solution was studied and the dynamics of the extraction was measured as a function of the oil/water ratio and gas flow rate. The investigations were carried out either in an empty column or in a packed column. The results proved that the use of gas-agitated oxidative liquid extraction was a good way to integrate the oxidative operation unit with the extraction unit in the alkyl anthraquinone process for the preparation of hydrogen peroxide.
