Enhancing Liquid-Phase Olefin–Paraffin Separations Using Novel Silver-Based Ionic Liquids

Designing Ionic Liquids for CO2 Separations

Ionic liquids present intriguing possibilities for removal of carbon dioxide from a wide variety of different gas mixtures, including post-combustion flue gas, pre-combustion gases, air, and raw natural gas streams. Even by physical absorption, many ILs provide sufficient selectivity over N2, O2, CH4 and other gases. However, when CO2 partial pressures are low, the incorporation of functional g...

Microscale liquid phase separations.

Miniaturization and microfabrication of analytical instrumentation for chemical and biological analyses has been proceeding at a rapid pace for a few decades, and has gained momentum in the past decade with the introduction and application of microfabricated instruments. Motivating factors for performing microscale separations and analyses are reduced reagent, solvent and sample consumption, re...

Encapsulated ionic liquids (ENILs): from continuous to discrete liquid phase.

Encapsulated ionic liquid (ENIL) material was developed, consisting of ionic liquid (IL) introduced into carbon submicrocapsules. ENILs contain >85% w/w of IL but discretized in submicroscopic encapsulated drops, drastically increasing the surface contact area with respect to the neat fluid. ENIL materials were here tested for gas separation processes, obtaining a drastic increase in mass trans...
