Removal of Lead from Liquid Waste Using Liquid Emulsion Membrane

Removal of copper ions from a waste mine water by a liquid emulsion membrane method

This is a communication on the removal of copper(II) ions from a residual mine water using an emulsified liquid membrane (ELM). The membrane was prepared by dissolving the extractant LIX-860 (a salicylaldoxime), used as a mobile carrier, and Span80, a surfactant, in kerosene. The ELM allowed an efficient metal transport from the feed solution towards the strip liquor, in experiments carried out...

Extraction of Acetaminophen from Aqueous Solution by Emulsion Liquid Membrane Using Taylor-Couette Column

A study on the extraction of Acetaminophen (ACTP) which is also known as paracetamol, from aqueous solution by emulsion liquid membrane process using Taylor-Couette Column (TCC) was investigated. An ELM consists of three phase system which are the external, membrane and internal phases. The external phase containing the ACTP aqueous solution to be treated. Basically, the internal and membrane p...

Performance evaluation of organic emulsion liquid membrane on phenol removal.

The percentage removal of phenol from aqueous solution by emulsion liquid membrane and emulsion leakage was investigated experimentally for various parameters such as membrane:internal phase ratio, membrane:external phase ratio, emulsification speed, emulsification time, carrier concentration, surfactant concentration and internal agent concentration. These parameters strongly influence the per...

Removal of cadmium (II) from aqueous waste effluents by using supported liquid membrane technology

There is a growing need to develop technologies that can separate and selectively remove hazardous chemical species from waste effluents. Selective removal of cadmium ions through a supported liquid membrane (SLM) containing triethanolamine (TEA) as a mobile carrier has been studied. The effects of Cd(II) concentration, HCl in feed and carrier concentration in membrane has been studied. Cd(II) ...
