The transport of chromium(VI) from hydrochloric acid medium by pseudoemulsion membrane strip dispersion (PEMSD), using CYPHOS IL101 (phosphonium salt) as ionophore, is investigated under various experimental variables in the feed phase [hydrodynamic conditions, concentration of Cr(VI) (0.01-1 g/L), concentration of HCl (0.01-1M)], in the organic phase [carrier concentration (1-10% v/v)], and in the strip phase (stripping agent). Other variables investigated were the volume organic/strip phase ratios in the pseudoemulsion phase and also the type of membrane support. Under given experimental conditions, i.e., [Cr(VI)](0) = 0.01 g/L and [HCl](0) = 0.01 M in the feed phase and organic solution of 10% v/v CYPRUS IL101 in cumene, extractions exceeding 95% are obtained, and it is possible to strip using 1 M NaoH solution (also with recoveries in the 60% range). The performance of the system is also compared against other membrane operational configurations.
