Abstract
ABSTRACTA new stable green emulsion liquid membrane (GELM) was formulated by selecting the environmentally benign vegetable oils. The rice bran oil (RBO) based GELM has shown better stability in comparison to that obtained from other oils. GELM was prepared using 10 mL RBO, 0.25 [M] NaOH concentration, 2 (v/v, %) surfactant concentration, 0.4 (v/v) phase ratio, 2000 rpm emulsification speed, and 20 min emulsification time. Under these optimum conditions, GELM has been found to be stable for 120 ± 2 min (no significant phase change) and has shown complete phase separation after 4 hours. Therefore, RBO as a green solvent has high potential to be applied in several ELM process applications.
