solvent layer
1Solvent — For other uses, see Solvent (disambiguation). A solvent (from the Latin solvō, “I loosen, untie, I solve”) is a liquid, solid, or gas that dissolves another solid, liquid, or gaseous solute, resulting in a solution that is soluble in a certain… …
2solvent refining — The process of mixing a petroleum stock with a selected solvent, which preferentially disolves undesired constituents, separating the resulting two layer and recovering the solvent from the raffinate (the purified fraction) and from the extract… …
