Research Abstract |
A ionic liquid membrane, which is a porous solid structure impregnated with an ionic liquid, was studied for applying the separation and recovery of lactic acid, which is the raw material of biodegradable polylactic acid, butanol recovery, which is one of the biofuel. In lactate separation, we developed polymer inclusion membrane using Aliquat 336 as an ionic liquid and hydrochloric acid solution as the recovery solution to reduce a desalination process. In butanol separation, we developed the supported ionic liquid membrane for pervaporation.
