An innovative approach to H2 S capture has been developed using several metal-based ionic liquids([Bmim]Cl·CuCl_2, [Bmim]Cl·FeCl_3, [Bmim]Cl·ZnCl_2, [Bmim]Br·CuCl_2, and [Bmim]Br·FeCl_3) immob...An innovative approach to H2 S capture has been developed using several metal-based ionic liquids([Bmim]Cl·CuCl_2, [Bmim]Cl·FeCl_3, [Bmim]Cl·ZnCl_2, [Bmim]Br·CuCl_2, and [Bmim]Br·FeCl_3) immobilized on the sol-gel derived silica, which is superior to purely viscous ionic liquid with a crucial limit of high temperature, low mass transfer rate,and mass loss. The adsorbents were characterized by the Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, transmission electron microscope, N_2 adsorption/desorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and thermal analysis techniques. The effects of the metal and halogen in IL, the loading amount of IL, and the adsorption temperature were studied by dynamic adsorption experiments at a gas flow rate of 100 mL/min. The H2 S adsorption results have showed that the optimal adsorbent and adsorption temperature are 5% [Bmim]Cl·CuCl_2/silica gel and 20—50 ℃, respectively. H_2 S can be captured and oxidized to elemental sulfur, and [Bmim]Cl·CuCl_2/silica gel can be readily regenerated by air. The excellent efficiency of H2 S removal may be attributed to the formation of nano-scaled and high-concentration [Bmim]Cl·CuCl_2 confined in silica gel, indicating that the immobilization of [Bmim]Cl·CuCl_2 on the sol-gel derived silica can be used for H2 S removal promisingly.展开更多

ILs have been highlighted as solvents for liquid-liquid extraction and liquid membrane separation. To further expand its application in separation field, the ionic liquid membranes(ILMs) and its separation technology have been proposed and developed rapidly. This paper is to give a comprehensive overview on the recent applications of ILMs for the separation of various compounds, including organic compounds, mixed gases, and metal ions. Firstly, ILMs was classified into supported ionic liquid membranes(SILMs) and quasi-solidified ionic liquid membranes(QSILMs) according to the immobilization method of ILs. Then, preparation methods of ILMs, membrane stability as well as applications of ILMs in the separation of various mixtures were reviewed. Followed this, transport mechanisms of gaseous mixtures and organic compounds were elucidated in order to better understand the separation process of ILMs. This tutorial review intends to not only offer an overview on the development of ILMs but also provide a guide for ILMs preparations and applications.展开更多

The compositions and structures of the hybrid samples were characterized by various methods such as FT-IR, XPS, Raman,UV–Vis, wide-angle XRD and N2adsorption–desorption. The experimental results indicated that the hybrid materials presented a high dispersion of tungsten species and excellent catalytic activity for the removal of 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene without any organic solvent as extractant, and the sulfur removal could reach 100.0% under mild conditions.The catalytic performance on various substrates was also investigated in detail. After cycling seven cycles, the sulfur removal of the heterogeneous system still reached 93.0%. The GC-MS analysis results demonstrated that the sulfur compound was first adsorbed by the catalyst and subsequently oxidized to its corresponding sulfone.展开更多
