Resumo
Phenolic compounds are pollutants with high toxicity even at low concentrations. The focus of this study is the stripping of phenol from the organic phase resulting from the extraction of phenol in aqueous solution with 1-decanol as solvent, using a membrane contactor. A simultaneous extraction-stripping process, using two membrane contactors, was carried out, yielding 99% phenol recovery and continuous regeneration of the organic phase.
