Liquid-liquid separation of hex-1-ene from hexane and cyclohexene from cyclohexane with ionic liquids

The objective of this work was to explore the feasibility of extraction of hex-1-ene from hexane and cyclohexene from cyclohexane with different ionic liquids (ILs). The liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) was studied in various binary and ternary mixtures of {IL (1) + hex-1-ene (2) + hexane (3)} and {IL (1) + cyclohexene (2) + cyclohexane (3)} at T = 298.15 K and p = 0.1 MPa. The ILs studied are as follows: 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium dicyanamide,...
