extractability
Capacity for removal
Extractability is the quality of being extractable—how readily something can be removed or separated from its source.
The term appears in technical contexts: the extractability of minerals from ore, of compounds from plant matter, of data from corrupted files.
The extractability of the oil depends on the porosity of the rock formation.
