Transport of Aniline through Bulk Liquid Membrane with Transition Metal Ion As Receiving Phase

Abstract

Aniline is a common carsinogenic chemical in industrial wastewater. Aniline above 2 mg/L may harm living organisms in the water that have been contaminated with aniline. The method that can be used is the bulk liquid membrane, which is currently effective in the recovery of aniline from the water. Aniline was transported initially the 4 x 10−5 M feed solution to the FeCl3 in the receiving phase is 90.17% in 90 minutes, feed phase at pH 6, stirring rate 180 rpm, and time equilibrium 15 minutes, while remaining at feed phase is 12.42%. The result from FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy) characterization indicate the presence of aniline in receiving phase, absorption characteristic of C-N and N-H in IR spectrum in the stripping phase.
