Abstract

The application of liquid membrane extraction to the recovery of lactic acid from model systems and fermentation media was investigated. An experimental study of the facilitated transport of lactic acid using ALIQUAT 336 as a mobile carrier in a stirred transfer cell is reported. The effect of stirring speed, initial lactic acid concentration, carrier concentration, and NaCl as a reagent in the acceptor phase are considered. (c) 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
