Transport studies were carried out for carbonate ions through supported liquid membrane (SLMs) by sing Alamine 336 and trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) as carriers. Experimental variables were investigated, such as concentration of carbonate ion (10(-5) to 4 x 10(-2) M), carriers (10(-5) to 10(-1) M), and alkali (0.01-0.5); and stirring speed (50-50 rpm) of bulk solutions. The use of combined carriers Alamine 336 and TOPO shows a synergic transport of carbonate ions. The stability of the SLM system in relation to the transport of carbonate ions has been studied. The enrichment of carbonate ions (10(-6) to 4 x 10(-2) M) from the dilute solution was explored. The different combinations of amines with TOPO show synergic permeability of the carbonate ions through SLM system.
