Abstract
ABSTRACTPolypropylene glycol (PPG) is one of the most utilized polymers in aqueous biphasic systems. The low polarity of the polymer-rich phase restricts the application of the ABSs. The applicability of polymer rich ABSs can be induced by adding little amount of ionic liquids as adjuvants. Therefore, an analysis involving the introduction of a small amount of imidazolium-based ILs to PPG 725 + ammonium salts ABSs was performed. The phase diagrams as well as the partitioning behavior of dyes: Orange II (OII), Eriochrome Black T (EBT) and Brilliant Green (BG) were investigated. The addition of 5% 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate, [BMIM][AC] modulates the partition behaviors of all the investigated dyes. The employed ILs and dyes partitioned preferentially into the polymer-rich phase. The partition coefficients (Kdye) for all the dyes follow the sequence: BG > EBT > OII in all investigated ABSs. The results obtained are in accordance with the logarithm of octanol-water partition coefficients (log Kow) of the respective dyes. The recovery of BG dye from polymer phase has been studied successfully by adsorption onto chitosan.KEYWORDS: Aqueous biphasic systemsphase behaviorammonium saltsionic liquidsdyes AcknowledgmentsEmmanuel A.

期刊介绍:
This international journal deals with fundamental and applied aspects of separation processes related to a number of fields. A wide range of topics are covered in the journal including adsorption, membranes, extraction, distillation, absorption, centrifugation, crystallization, precipitation, reactive separations, hybrid processes, continuous separations, carbon capture, flocculation and magnetic separations. The journal focuses on state of the art preparative separations and theoretical contributions to the field of separation science. Applications include environmental, energy, water, and biotechnology. The journal does not publish analytical separation papers unless they contain new fundamental contributions to the field of separation science.
