Extractive distillation is commonly used for the separation of azeotropic or close‐boiling
mixtures in the chemical industry. During the past decade, the use of ionic liquids (ILs) as …

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) comprise a wide variety of carbon-based materials
which are volatile at relatively low temperatures. Most of VOCs pose a hazard to both human …

Separation of aromatics from aliphatics is a challenging process because of the close range
of their boiling points and the formation of several combinations of azeotropes. Until now, no …

This paper reports a comprehensive evaluation of the conductor-like screening model for
real solvents (COSMO-RS) in predicting infinite dilution activity coefficients (γ∞) of …

In order to increase flexibility in tailoring the permeability and selectivity of supported ionic
liquid membranes (SILMs) for flue gas separation and natural gas purification, this work …

Although double salt ionic liquids (DSILs) offer significant advantages over classical two‐ion
ionic liquids as separation solvents, relevant studies are still scarce and a systematic DSIL …

Extractive distillation (ED) can be used to separate mixtures with low relative volatilities that
are even close to unity. It is widely adopted for the separation of aromatics and nonaromatics …

Separation and reaction processes are key components employed in the modern chemical
industry, and the former accounts for the majority of the energy consumption therein. In …

This work focuses on the evaluation of protic ionic liquids (PILs), prepared by direct
neutralization of ethanolamine with different carboxylic acids, for being used as entrainers in …

COSMO-based process simulations using Aspen Plus and Aspen HYSYS were
systematically applied to the conceptual design of the two main unit operations commonly …
