Abstract

Many studies have examined the use of liquid membranes for various processes such as separations of isomers, gas, organic mixtures, and removal of specific ions. It has been reported that liquid membranes show high selectivity. However, it is difficult to apply the liquid membranes to practical industrial processes because of the low stability of the liquid membranes.(omitted)
