Abstract

This study predicts the performance of kraft lignin extraction using emulsion liquid membrane (ELM) from pulping wastewater using boundary breakage model. The model was developed based on the previous study with some modifications and assumptions. Therefore, in developing kraft lignin extraction model, it will consider emulsion globule approach and the emulsion swelling and breakage during the ELMs process.  It was found to be numerically stable and reliable in predicting the behavior of kraft lignin extraction using ELM for long duration of time.  MATLAB software was used to predict the performance of ELM on extracting kraft lignin from pulping wastewater based on the model developed. At optimum condition, the simulation prediction result was found to have a small deviation with the experimental data on extraction efficiency.The model was computed with some parameter effects including initial feed concentrations; treat ratio and agitation speed, which demonstrated that the prediction results were in agreement with the theoretical study of ELM. The data instills confidence in the model as a useful prediction model on kraft lignin removal by ELM process in pulping industry.
