Copper(II) removal and/or recovery from wastewaters, e.g., washing water of contaminated soils, was investigated by using a new chelant, the molecule 2-hydroxy-5-dodecylbenzaldehyde (2-H-5-DBA), never used before as a ligand for metal ions. This material was designed and synthesized by improving a method reported in the literature, obtaining a very high yield (80 vs 19%). Process selectivity and supported liquid membrane (SLM) viability were studied. The operating conditions and selectivity of the process were found by means of L-L extraction tests performed at different carrier concentrations (10, 30, and 50% v/v) using kerosene as the solvent. At 50% v/v carrier concentration and pH 5, the selectivities of Cu2+ separation vs Ni2+, Zn2+, and Mn2+ were 4.25, 315.0, and 280.0, respectively. The carrier concentration had a strong influence on the viability of the SLM process: indeed, by increasing the concentration of the carrier, the operating pH could be decreased, thereby avoiding copper precipitation in the feed phase. The enrichment factor of Cu2+ in the strip ([Cu2+](strip)/[Cu2+](feed))(final) was 23.5.
