Phenol recovery and removal from aqueous solutions by emulsion liquid membranes

Canarbek İZAKOV | Nurzat ŞAYKİYEVA

Emulsion type liquid membrane process is a new and effective method for separation of mixtures with applications in the nuclear industry, hydrometallurgy and wastewater treatment. The emulsified liquid membrane is made by forming an emulsion of two immiscible phases and then dispersing the emulsion in a third phase (i.e. continuous or feed phase). Phenol is mainly found in the wastewaters of such industries as petroleum refineries and petrochemicals. In addition phenol is also contained in the wastewaters of industries of resins, explosives, paper, plastics, glass and rubbers. Numerous solvent ...Более
