Abstract 

The discharging of reactive dye-containing wastewater from the textile industry causes environmental destruction and serious health problems. The application of supported liquid membrane (SLM) as a water treatment process has gained strong attention today. In this study, SLM process was used to remove and recover reactive dye from wastewater. Reactive dye, Red 3BS, was removed and recovered through SLM assisted by tridodecylamine (TDA) as a carrier and sodium hydroxide as a stripping agent. The parameters governing the transportation of Red 3BS such as pH of feed phase, concentration of strip phase, and concentration of feed phase were investigated. The results show that almost 100 % and 60 % of 50 ppm Red 3BS was selectively removed and recovered, respectively, using 0.1 M TDA and 0.1 M NaOH at pH 3 of the feed phase.
