Many industries uses dyes extensively in different operations such as textile, paper, plastic, dyeing,pharmaceutical, cosmetics, leather tanning etc., for coloring their final products. Some dyes are toxic, mutagenic andcarcinogenic. Thus the removal of dyes from the waste water is necessary before it gets mixed with the non-pollutedwater. Various methods have been used to remove dyes from aqueous solutions. Liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) issignificant potential to remove the dyes from wastewater. In the present study,we selected cationic dye namely methylviolet for liquid-liquid extraction using Tri butyl phosphate (TBP) as an extractant and 1-Dodecanol as a diluent. Theinfluencing parameters such as effect of extractant concentration, dye concentration and pH on extraction performancehas been studied. It is seen that as the pH increases extraction of dye increases, Dye extraction increases with decreasein extractant concentration and extraction increases with increases in dye concentration.The influence of the parameters such as effect of extractant concentration, diluents, dye concentration and pH onextraction performance will be studied.
