Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are a new class of green solvents that open a whole new world of opportunities for separation challenges. This book comprehensively provides a detailed discussion of their application as an extractive solvent in separation processes, adopting molecular dynamics (MD) simulations for atomistic insight into the solute transfer across bi-phasic systems. Furthermore, it explains ternary and quaternary mixtures, including MD simulation of relevant DES systems.
Features in this volume include the following:
- Applications of DESs in the extraction of aromatics and polyaromatics from fuel oil by liquid-liquid extraction
- Eutectic behavior with respect to hydrocarbon and aqueous solutions
- MD insights on extraction using DESs
- Possible industrial applicability of potential DESs
- Results from Gaussian, NAMD, and PACKMOL software packages
This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students working in the f
