Abstract:Hydrogen sulfide was separated from highly saline wastewater by emulsion liquid membranes (ELMs). Such membranes consist of polyalkenyl succinimide as emulsifying agent, diethanolamine as carrier, kerosene as membrane, and sodium hydroxide as stripping solution. The effect of four surfactants on the stability of ELMs was investigated and every operational parameter was tested. The highest achievable separation efficiency was 99.73 % for a 100 mg L -1 solution. Obviously, the salinity of the external phase has … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
