What can this MCP calculate for extraction columns?

It calculates theoretical stages, column diameter, column height, and hydrodynamic stability.

How does it prevent column flooding?

It uses the calculate_column_diameter capability to determine the necessary diameter based on your phase flow rates.

Can I use this with Claude or Cursor?

Yes, you can use this MCP with any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

Does it handle hydrodynamic stability?

Yes, the evaluate_hydrodynamics capability assesses dispersion and coalescence tendencies to ensure stable operation.

How is column height determined?

The calculate_column_height capability determines the physical height required to accommodate the necessary stages.

What can I calculate with this capability?

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.

How do I prevent column flooding?

Use the calculate_column_diameter capability with your feed and solvent flow rates, densities, and interfacial tension to find the optimal diameter that maintains a safe flooding margin.

Does this capability account for stage efficiency?

Yes, the calculate_column_height capability requires a stage efficiency parameter (0.0 to 1.0) to convert theoretical stages into the actual physical height needed.

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Capability set01 / 01

01-04

4 capabilities in this set.

Part of 4 available through Extraction Column Design.

01
Evaluate hydrodynamics
This capability analyzes dispersion and coalescence tendencies to check if your extraction process remains stable.
02
Calculate column diameter
Use this to find the required column diameter that prevents flooding based on your specific phase flow rates.
03
Calculate column height
This capability determines the physical height the column needs to reach to accommodate your required stages.
04
Get theoretical stages
This capability calculates the minimum number of contact stages required to reach your target separation concentration.

Real work

What teams actually run

Initial Column Sizing

Use the MCP to find the diameter and height for a new extraction setup based on flow rates and target concentrations.

Separation Optimization

Determine the exact number of stages required to meet strict purity or concentration requirements.

Operational Safety Checks

Evaluate hydrodynamics to ensure the column won't suffer from coalescence or dispersion issues during operation.

Equipment Troubleshooting

Check if current flow rates are pushing a column toward its flooding limit.

One connector, every AI

Extraction Column Design works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Extraction Column Design to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Extraction Column Design, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Extraction Column Design. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.
