Interfaces play an important role in our daily life, and in the

world around us. Surface tension is a fundamental and important

property by which the gasliquid interfaces are characterized.

Interfacial engineering is a cross-disciplinary subject in which

the scientists and engineers from several disciplines work.

Separation processes are vital and inevitable in chemical

engineering. One of the economical methods of separation is

based on utilizing the properties like surface tension.

Mass transfer II covers the concept of material balance in various mass transfer phenomena. This mass

transfer processes are those that require either application of heat or a solvent. In the case of

distillation where the mixture of the components varies largely in their boiling point components can be

separated by application of heat. For liquid with inflammable characteristics liquid-liquid extraction isused where introduction of an immiscible liquid which acts as a solvent for one of the liquid. The liquid

mixture then can be separated by simple separating funnels. In case of any toxic gas mixture the toxic

component is separated with the help of gas absorbers where the solvent liquid is sprayed in a

countercurrent fashion. The effective contact between various phases like gas liquid in particular is

ensured by application of either solid packing or by introduction of trays.
