Moving primary source citations to talk, to save
The sources being moved are all much too narrow, and / or are commercial, lacking page nos. and relevant dates, or are outdated, etc. They are therefore inadequate / inappropriate for a general introductory chemistry article. Moreover, they are not at all indicative of the enormous secondary literature available on this subject, and are only of value as a peripheral sources (i.e., sources of examples of application). Hence, the current three narrow and flawed references are being removed here, to Talk. This is being done as a respectful option to their simply being deleted. A multiple issue/citation tag is being added for the interim, until the article can be moved into reasonable shape.

Purpose of article?
How is this topic distinct from Separation process? If there is no difference, should this be merged into the other? -Bryanrutherford0 (talk) 19:12, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

This article is a fundamental concept in chemistry and as such should be expanded upon. AmerHanan (talk) 21:08, 26 February 2018 (UTC)

Discussion of liquid-liquid extraction
Add: In liquid-liquid extraction compounds separate on their relative solubility in two different immiscible liquid phases. This technique has been applied in several fields such as analytical chemistry and biology.
