Liquid Membrane Technology

Abstract: Liquid membrane technology is introduced and is identified as a subset of membrane science. A tutorial section discusses configurations, transport mechanisms, experimental techniques, and a survey of basic theoretical approaches. The concepts of reactive liquid membranes which combine traditional unit operations such as extraction or absorption with stripping are discussed. The chapters to follow in this volume are summarized and the subject of each is placed in perspective to the field of liquid membrane tech… Show more

“…In liquid membrane systems transportation phenomena are enforced by driving force and the driving force is generally chemical potential gradient changing with concentration. Separation process occurs in liquid film due to difference between diffusion and solubility (Noble and Way 1989). Liquid membranes are well known as one of the most powerful tools for separation and enrichment purposes (Ulbrich and Marr 1994).Carrier mediated transport through liquid membranes is not only an important technique for concentration, separation, and recovery, but is also of fundamental importance from the environmental engineer's point of view (Winston and Sirkkar 1992;Mulder 1990).…”

“…A number of mathematical models, which describe the behaviour of supported liquid membrane separation processes, have been proposed [9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. The system under study consists of two aqueous phases and an organic phase, which contains the carrier, triethanolamine (TEA), confined within the membrane pores by capillary action.…”

“…In practice it leads to greatly reduced solvent and carrier inventories, as well as significantly faster mass transfer rates, which are uninhibited by the equilibrium constraints encountered in solvent extraction. 22 The two most common configurations are emulsion (ELM) and supported liquid membranes (SLM), as shown in Figures 2 and 3, respectively. In the former configuration, droplets of the receiving phase are stabilised within an organic membrane phase, in the form of a water-in-oil emulsion.…”
