Extractive distillation of the benzene and acetonitrile mixture using an ionic liquid as the entrainer

The benzene and acetonitrile azeotropic mixture was proposed to be separated by extractive distillation using an ionic liquid (IL) as the entrainer. The suitable IL was selected by the COSMO-RS model, and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([EMIM][BF4]) was considered as the suitable entr...
