4 tools Official Updated Oct 1, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

This MCP server provides a complete suite of engineering tools for designing liquid-liquid extraction columns. It allows AI agents to perform complex chemical engineering calculations, including determining the get_theoretical_stages required for specific separation targets, calculating the calculate_column_diameter to prevent flooding, and determining the calculate_column_height based on stage efficiency. Additionally, users can evaluate_hydrodynamics to assess phase dispersion and coalescence tendencies, ensuring stable column operation.

How many stages do I need for a feed concentration of 0.5, solvent concentration of 0.1, and a target concentration of 0.05 using this equilibrium data: {"points": [[0.1, 0.05], [0.5, 0.2]]}?

The required number of theoretical stages is 4, with a calculated solvent-to-feed ratio of 1.5.

Calculate the column diameter for a feed flow of 10 m3/h, solvent flow of 5 m3/h, feed density of 1000 kg/m3, solvent density of 800 kg/m3, and interfacial tension of 0.02 N/m.

The required column diameter is 1.25 meters with a flooding margin of 0.25.

What is the total height for 5 theoretical stages with 0.7 efficiency and 0.5m tray spacing?

The total height of the column is 3.57 meters, with an active height of 2.5 meters.

You can calculate the number of theoretical stages, the required column diameter to avoid flooding, the total column height, and evaluate hydrodynamic stability like dispersion and coalescence.
