![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Removal of methylene blue from waste water using micellar enhanced ultrafiltration Removal of methylene blue from waste water using micellar enhanced ultrafiltration](/preview/png/4486660.png)
Ultrafiltration of micellar solutions containing sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) and oxyethylated coconut fatty acid methyl esters (OMC-10) and their binary mixtures were studied and used to recover methylene blue. This was achieved through solubilization in mixed negatively charged micelles. Under the experimental conditions used, no significant fouling of the membrane comprising of cellulose, polyethersulfone and polyvinylidene fluoride was observed, with no retardation of ultrafiltration. The introduction of a nonionic surfactant to SDS reduced the critical micelle concentration of mixed micelles and then the concentration of surfactants in the permeate, i.e., from 8.3×10−3 M for SDS to 2.0×10−3 M for the mixture of SDS:OMC-10=4:1. Such a tailored surfactant mixture enabled the authors to achieve 93–94% retention of methylene blue using a hydrophilic membrane made of cellulose.Ultrafiltration of micellar solutions could also be considered a research method, helpful in determining important parameters such as micelle loading and the micelle binding constant used to characterize micellar solutions. Additionally the distribution coefficient employed in extraction studies can be resolved.
