Utilization of Supported Liquid Membrane Technique

In response to increasing concerns over heavy metals
and organics contamination of our land and water
resources, new economically feasible techniques for
effective removal of
toxic chemical species need to be developed. Liquid
Membrane separation technology is an attractive
option as a low cost generic separation
technique.The present work consists of development
and application of SLM technology towards removal of
heavy metals and low molecular weight organics from
industrial waste effluents. This book describes
practical methodologies for the selective removal of
metallic species like Pb(II), Cd(II), Cr(VI), Ag(I),
Cu(II) & Ni(II). Moreover, separation of organic
species like textile dye (thioflavin T) and phenols
is also discussed in detail. This monograph
should be especially useful for scientists working
in the areas of membrane science and its
applications for the treatment of industrial waste
effluents.
