Ethanol purification using membrane technology by Huang, Ting-Yi

“…The first part of this thesis focused on developing a low-energy purification process for ethanol extraction from dilute aqueous solution (2 wt% ethanol in water) by integrating supported ionic liquid membrane (SILM) with perstraction. Preliminary screening tests were performed for the selection of a suitable ionic liquid (IL) and membrane support from three trihexyl(tetradecyl)phosphonium ionic liquids (THTDP) ILs and three commercial polymeric flat-sheet membranes. …”
