Evaluation and mechanism of cationic/anionic dyes extraction from water by ionic liquids, Chemical
Engineering Communications, DOI: 10.1080/00986445.2018.1520706
ABSTRACT KEYWORDS
Dispersive liquid–liquid micro-extraction (DLLME) using three different imidazolium-based Anionic dyes; Cationic dye;
ionic liquid (IL) was applied for extraction of recalcitrant dyes, Eriochrome black T (anionic Dispersive liquid–liquid
azo dye), and Crystal Violet (cationic triphenylmethane dye) from aqueous solutions, not extraction; Imidazolium-
based ionic liquids;
previously reported. Effects of process parameters such as initial dye concentration, pH of Regeneration
aqueous phase, amount and type of IL on fraction extracted, and distribution ratio of dyes
were studied. Further, dyes interaction with ILs and extraction mechanism were explored.
Considering the high cost of ILs, regeneration and reuse study for ILs was also performed
using reverse DLLME. The fraction extracted for both the dyes with all the ILs varied signifi-
cantly with pH change. Maximum dyes fraction extracted were observed nearly at neutral
pH (pH ¼7). However, the fraction extracted were different for different IL.
