The unique physicochemical properties, flexible structural tunability, and giant chemical
space of ionic liquids (ILs) provide them a great opportunity to match different target …

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 …

Plastic waste is currently produced at an alarmingly high rate, nearing 400 Mt per year. The
accumulation of plastics in the environment is growing rapidly, yet our knowledge of their …

Although ionic liquids (ILs) have been widely explored as solvents for extractive
desulfurization (EDS) of fuel oils, systematic studying of the optimal design of ILs for this …

Here, we present a new concept of a core–shell type ionic liquid/metal organic framework
(IL/MOF) composite. A hydrophilic IL, 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3-methylimidazolium …

Air pollution is partly due to the emission of toxic sulfur and nitrogen oxides during fuel
combustion. Therefore, these compounds should be removed from fuels. For that, ionic …

The correct implementation of the quantum mechanics (QM) calculation for COSMO-SAC
based surface charge density profiles (σ-profile) and cavity volumes (V COSMO) is tricky and …

The oil industry is in search of the stable chemicals that can be applied in drilling,
stimulation, enhanced oil recovery at high temperature and high salinity reservoirs …

Wastewater treatment is a vital process to protect people and local ecosystems from toxic
elements found in wastewater and keep the environment clean. However, conventional …

Owing to the possibility of generating theoretically unlimited numbers of ionic liquid (IL)–
metal‐organic framework (MOF) combinations, experimental studies on IL/MOF composites …
