Sensitivitas Ligan Ditizon terhadap Absorbsi Logam Zink dengan Teknik Emulsi Membran Cair

Abstract

Contamination by zink metal can cause death in humans, animals, and plants. one of the uniqueness of this metal is that it can accumulate. consuming it at a low concentration does not cause death but if it happens continuously it will accumulate into high concentrate which can cause death. Ligand ditizon is one of the ligands which can absorb zink metal at low concentration, to be more efficient then used the liquid membrane emulsion technique which enables separation without going through the process of precipitation. Variations of concentration used is 1:3 v/v, 1:1 v/v and 3:1 v/v. Optimum absorption occurs at concentrations 1:3 v/v are 90.77%. Variations of liquid membrane emulsion duration used is 5 minute, 10 minute and 15 minute. Optimum absorption at duration 5 minute are 50.22%. Optimum absorption on the interaction between concentration and liquid membrane emulsion duration are 43.73% obtained F (392.76) >  Ftable (14.80).
