Efficient extraction and theoretical insights into the separation of pyridine from simulated oil using functionalized imidazolium-based ionic liquids
Pyridine is a valuable chemical and its recovery from coal tar and removal from fossil fuels are essential from economic and environmental perspectives. For the first time, this study employed ionic liquids (ILs) featuring nitrile and ether-functionalized imidazolium-based cations, paired with thiocyanate (SCN−) and hydrogen sulfate (HSO4−) anions, for the effective denitrogenation of simulated oil. The denitrogenation performance was evaluated using removal efficiency (RE). A comprehensive comparison of both ILs demonstrated excellent extraction efficiency in the simulated fuel oil with hexane, and only the IL with the anion of HSO4− exhibited good extraction performance in the simulated coal tar oil with hexane and toluene. The RE of the IL with the anion of HSO4− exceeded 94 %, under optimal denitrogenation conditions: mass ratio of IL to model oil (MIL:MSimulated oil), 1:4; extraction time, 15 min; extraction temperature, 298 K and initial pyridine concentration of 5 wt%. The RE of the IL with SCN− as an anion was over 75 % under similar conditions. Additionally, the molecular electrostatic potentials, interaction energies, and reduced density gradient were investigated for the ILs and pyridine using quantum chemical calculations. These results confirmed the experimental findings by analyzing the comparatively higher affinity of ILs for pyridine through the evaluation of favorable interaction between them.
