In this research, different alcohols and phenols are subjected to the reaction with HMDS in the presence of ionic liquid and silica-supported catalysts. Silylation was accomplished under mild reaction conditions at room temperature in short reaction times and good to excellent yields.

The extraction of Terbium (III)from aqueous nitrate solutions with a supported liquid membrane was investigated using a mixture of di-(2-ethylhexyl phosphoric acid (D2EHPA) and tri-octyl phosphine oxide (TOPO) with a molar ratio 1/0.4. The Hydrophobic Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) membrane was used as solid support. The sorption process followed pseudo-second-o...

The acid dyes are one of the most widely used commercial dyes used in the textile industries. This work investigates the ability of magnetite nanoparticles functionalized with imidazolium based ionic liquid as an efficient sorbent for removal of the Acid Blue 113 from wastewater. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy FT-IR, X-ray diffraction XRD and Transmission Electron Microscopy TEM were u...

A monolithic γ-Al 2 O 3 support is developed to scale up the WGS process using supported ionic liquid-phase concept in a structured reactor. The support-ionic liquid-catalyst system maximizes loading and mechanical resistance while achieving high activity selectivity.
