  • On the Use of Ionic Liquids to Separate Aromatic Hydrocarbons from a Model Soil
    Separation Science and Technology, 2012
    Co-Authors: Ana B. Pereiro, Francisco J Deive, Ana Rodríguez
    Abstract:

    The potential of exploiting ionic liquids (ILs) for an ex situ solvent aromatic extraction technique is envisaged in this work, due to the serious proportions reached by this kind of contaminants associated with the industrial progress. 1-butyl-1-Methylpyrrolidinium bis (trifluoroMethylsulfonyl) imide, tetraalkyl ammonium Sulfate, trihexyl (tetradecyl) phosphonium dicyanamide, 1-hexyl-3-Methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate, 1,3-diMethylimidazolium Methyl Sulfate, and 1-butyl-3-Methylimidazolium Methyl Sulfate are proposed to efficiently extract benzene, toluene, and ethylbenzene at concentrations over the maximum allowable limit. The extraction procedure is completed with a washing and recycling step with the purpose of achieving a more competitive process.

  • sodium carbonate as phase promoter in aqueous solutions of imidazolium and pyridinium ionic liquids
    The Journal of Chemical Thermodynamics, 2011
    Co-Authors: Francisco J Deive, M A Rivas, Ana Rodríguez
    Abstract:

    Abstract Several MethylSulfate and chloride anion-based ionic liquids, such as 1-alkyl-3-Methyl imidazolium Methyl Sulfate, C n MIM CH 3 SO 4 ( n  = 1, 2, and 4), 1-benzyl-3-Methyl imidazolium Methyl Sulfate, BzMIM CH 3 SO 4 , 1-benzyl, or hexyl-3-Methyl imidazolium chloride, XMIM Cl (X = Bz and Hx), and Methylpyridinium MethylSulfate, Mpy CH 3 SO 4 , with sodium carbonate, Na 2 CO 3 , as phase forming salt, have been investigated and discussed for their potential use in separations based on aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS). Phase diagrams have been experimentally ascertained at T  = 298.15 K, and Merchuck equation and a variation of this model have been used for correlating the binodal data. The alkyl chain length in the cation and the type of anion and cation have been explored and discussed due to their decisive influence in the ATPS behavior. The consistence of tie-line data was ascertained by applying the Othmer–Tobias and Bancroft equations.

    Journal of Chemical & Engineering Data, 2007
    Co-Authors: Ana Pereiro B And, Ana Rodríguez
    Abstract:

    This research is focused on a study of the ionic liquid as a solvent in liquid−liquid extraction of azeotropic mixtures. Liquid−liquid equilibria (LLE) were determined for the ternary systems ethanol + 2-butanone + 1-butyl-3-Methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([BMIM][PF6]), 2-propanol + 2-butanone + [BMIM][PF6], and 2-butanone + 2-propanol + 1,3-diMethylimidazolium Methyl Sulfate ([MMIM][MeSO4]) at 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure. Selectivity and distribution ratio values, derived from the tie lines data, were calculated. Experimental LLE data were correlated by means of the nonrandom two-liquid, Othmer−Tobias, and Hand equations. The plait point compositions have been calculated by the Hand method.

  • Physical Properties of 1-Butyl-3-Methylimidazolium Methyl Sulfate as a Function of Temperature
    Journal of Chemical & Engineering Data, 2007
    Co-Authors: Ana B. Pereiro, Pedro Verdía, And Emilia Tojo, Ana Rodríguez
    Abstract:

    Density, speed of sound, refractive index, dynamic viscosity, and surface tension measurements of 1-butyl-3-Methylimidazolium Methyl Sulfate have been made as a function of temperature. The synthesis of the ionic liquid is given. The low viscosity of the ionic liquid suggests its use as a solvent in the extraction process for the separation of azeotropic mixtures. The thermal expansion coefficient of the ionic liquid was calculated from the density, and the results are discussed. An analysis of the influence of the alkyl chain length of the cation on the density was performed by comparison with recently published values.

  • influence of temperature on thermophysical properties of tri butyl Methylphosphonium Methyl Sulfate n Methyl 2 pyrrolidone
    Journal of Molecular Liquids, 2017
    Co-Authors: Reddicherla Umapathi, Deresh Ramjugernath, Pannuru Venkatesu
    Abstract:

    Abstract In this work, densities (ρ), ultrasonic sound velocities (u) and viscosities (η) for binary mixture of tri(butyl)Methylphosphonium Methyl Sulfate ([P4441][CH3SO4]) with N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) were measured over the entire composition range at temperatures ranging from 293.15 to 323.15 K in steps of 5 K under atmospheric pressure. The derived properties such as excess molar volumes (VE), deviation in isentropic compressibilities (Δκs) and deviation in viscosities (Δη) are obtained from ρ, u and η data, respectively. The derived properties were correlated accurately with the Redlich-Kister type equation. The VE, Δκs and Δη values for the aforesaid systems are negative over the entire composition range under the present experimental conditions. The molecular interactions and structural effects were examined on the basis of measured and derived properties. The obtained results are useful for describing the intermolecular interactions, developing structure-property correlation and molecular modeling that exist between [P4441][CH3SO4] with NMP mixture.

  • Liquid–Liquid Equilibria for Mixtures of Hexadecane and Ethanol with Imidazolium-Based Ionic Liquids
    Journal of Solution Chemistry, 2015
    Co-Authors: Niren Mungar Ram, Paramespri Naidoo, Indra Bahadur, Trevor M. Letcher, Deresh Ramjugernath
    Abstract:

    The applicability of 1-alkyl-imidazoluim-based ionic liquids (ILs) for the extraction of ethanol from hexadecane by solvent extraction was studied by determining the liquid–liquid equilibrium (LLE) data for the ternary systems: {hexadecane (1) + ethanol (2) + 1,3-diMethylimidazolium Methyl Sulfate, [MMIM][MeSO4] (3) or 1-ethyl-3-Methylimidazolium Methyl Sulfate, [EMIM][MeSO4] (3), or 1-butyl-3-Methylimidazolium Methyl Sulfate, [BMIM][MeSO4] (3)} at T = 298.15 K and p = 1 atm. The selectivities and distribution coefficients of the solute, derived from the measured tie-line data, were used to examine the ability of these ILs as solvents to extract ethanol from a hexadecane-ethanol mixture. The temperature dependency was investigated by measuring the LLE data for {hexadecane (1) + ethanol (2) + [MMIM][MeSO4] (3)} at T = 313.15 K and p = 1 atm. The Othmer–Tobias and Hand equations were used to establish the quality of the LLE data. Finally, the experimental tie-line data were correlated using the Non-Random Two Liquid model.

  • Solubilities of Carbon Dioxide and Oxygen in the Ionic Liquids Methyl Trioctyl Ammonium Bis(trifluoroMethylsulfonyl)imide, 1-Butyl-3-Methyl Imidazolium Bis(trifluoroMethylsulfonyl)imide, and 1-Butyl-3-Methyl Imidazolium Methyl Sulfate
    The journal of physical chemistry. B, 2015
    Co-Authors: Indra Bahadur, Khalid Osman, Christophe Coquelet, Paramespri Naidoo, Deresh Ramjugernath
    Abstract:

    Ionic liquids (ILs) are being considered as solvents for gas absorption processes as they have the potential, in general, for improved efficiency of gas separations, as well as lower capital and operating costs compared to current commercial processes. In this study the solvent properties of ILs are investigated for use in the absorption of carbon dioxide (CO2) and oxygen (O2). The absorption of these gases in ILs was measured in the temperature range 303.15-333.15 K and at pressures up to 1.5 MPa by gravimetric analysis. The ILs used were Methyl trioctyl ammonium bis (trifluoroMethylsulfonyl) imide ([MOA][Tf2N]), 1-butyl-3-Methyl imidazolium bis (trifluoroMethylsulfonyl) imide ([BMIM][Tf2N]), and 1-butyl-3-Methyl imidazolium Methyl Sulfate ([BMIM][MeSO4]). The measurement technique employed in this study is fast and accurate, and requires small quantities of solvent. The results indicated that absorption of both gases increased with a decrease in operating temperature and an increase in pressure. [MOA][Tf2N] had the highest CO2 and O2 solubility. [BMIM][Tf2N] was determined to have the highest selectivity for CO2 absorption. [BMIM][MeSO4] achieved the lowest CO2 absorption with a moderate O2 absorption, revealing this IL to be the least desirable for CO2 and O2 absorption. Calculation of Henry's law constants for all systems confirmed the deductions made from absorption data analysis. Calculation of enthalpy and entropy of absorption for each system revealed CO2 absorption in [MOA][Tf2N] to be the least sensitive to temperature increases. The absorption data was modeled using the generic Redlich-Kwong cubic equation of state (RK-EOS) coupled with a group contribution method.
