Pseudo-emulsion hollow fiber strip dispersion (PEHFSD) technique is used for Zn(II) recovery.
1-(3-Pyridyl)undecan-1-one oxime is used as a novel extractant in PEHFSD.
Novel extractant efficiency is compared with TBP in PEHFSD.
The oxime is a promising alternative to the classical extractant for Zn(II) removal.
