Facilitated transport of Orange 3R was performed by means of emulsion liquid membrane (ELM) technique containing double extractants of Aliquat 336 and D2EHPA as extractant and synergist extractant, respectively. Cooking palm oil, sorbitan monooleate (Span 80), and sodium hydroxide were used as diluent, surfactant and stripping agent, respectively. Several parameters influencing the extraction of Orange 3R via ELM, namely effect of extraction time, agitator speed, Span 80 concentration and treatment ratio, were experimentally investigated and optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). Results demonstrated that about 91% of Orange 3R was successfully extracted under optimum conditions of 12 minutes of extraction time, 413 rpm of agitator speed, 3.2% (w/v) of sorbitan monooleate, and 1:9.8 of treatment ratio. Additionally, the aforementioned optimum conditions were found to be more suitable to treat low concentration of Orange 3R (less than 100 ppm) from simulated textile wastewater. The findings reveal that reactive Orange 3R dye is able to be selectively extracted using double extractants via sustainable ELM process as well as providing high potential application in the dye removal from industrial textile wastewater.
