Liquid membrane technology in batch operation is not quite feasible at industrial level. Hence, a continuous emulsion liquid membrane (CELM) process was conducted in this study to extract phenol from liquid waste solution. An extractor of 1.5 L equipped with baffles was used for well mixed during th...
