extractable
Able to remove
Extractable describes something that can be removed or drawn out from a larger whole.
Minerals are extractable from ore, data is extractable from databases, and confessions are extractable from suspects.
The word often appears in technical contexts—chemistry, dentistry, data processing—wherever separation is possible: The tooth was easily extractable.
Also spelled extractible.
