Simultaneous Extraction And Stripping Of Cu(II) Ions Through Vegetable Oil-Based Bulk Liquid Membrane

This research aims to examine the feasibility of replacing the classical petroleum-based organic solvents, which are non-renewable and invariably toxic, with the vegetable oil-based ones, that are more renewable and environmentally benign, as the membrane phase of a bulk liquid membrane (BLM) for si...
