Plasticizer extraction from polymer membranes such as battery separators and the like, by exposure to a solvent-water combination. The water or steam is supplied to form an additional interface in a bulk solvent, and to agitate the solvent and control the temperature, as well. At the extractor exit, as well as the inlet, a water elbow is furnished in such a manner as to prevent solvent vapor contact with the atmosphere, and to keep the extractor body under some excessive pressure.
