Summary:This work aims to removing anionic food dyes, Acid Red18 (E124) and Quinoline Yellow WS (E104), from their aqueous solutions. The Emulsion Liquid Membrane (ELM) technique was used. ELM consists of diluent (kerosene), nonionic surfactant (0.5 wt. % Triton X-45), Aliquat 336 as an extractant. Sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4 ) solution was used as an internal aqueous phase. The key parameters impacting the stability of liquid membrane and the efficiency of dye removal were investigated; Almost 98% of E124 at 50 mg/L are successfully extracted under optimum conditions. The extraction of a mixture of the two dyes at equal concentrations (25 mg/L) was conducted and their extraction showed more than 95% of efficiency. The experimental results of dye mixture (E124, E104) extraction were expressed by the following three quantities: The concentration of Triton X-45, the concentration of Aliquat 336, and the internal phase concentration of H 2 SO 4, represented on three dimensional plots using the Box-Behnken design and the response surface methodology. For each of the parameters, the values of which were determined by experimental design, these results were subjected to empirical smoothing. The values, thus calculated, are consistent with the measurements.
