Enhancing Liquid-Phase Olefin-Paraffin Separations Using Novel Silver-Based Ionic Liquids
This paper describes the extraction
of C5âC8 linear α-olefins
from olefin/paraffin mixtures of the same carbon number using silverÂ(I)/<i>N,N</i>-dimethylbenzamide bisÂ(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)Âimide
([AgÂ(DMBA)<sub>2</sub>]Â[Tf<sub>2</sub>N]) or silverÂ(I)/propylamine
bisÂ(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)Âimide ([AgÂ(PrNH<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>]Â[Tf<sub>2</sub>N]) as the extracting agent. The separation performance
of the system increased with increasing chain length. [AgÂ(DMBA)<sub>2</sub>]Â[Tf<sub>2</sub>N] appeared to outperform [AgÂ(PrNH<sub>2</sub>)<sub>2</sub>]Â[Tf<sub>2</sub>N] in terms of both selectivity and
distribution coefficient. The [AgÂ(DMBA)<sub>2</sub>]Â[Tf<sub>2</sub>N] system was successfully modeled using the universal quasi-chemical
activity coefficient (UNIQUAC) model. These results support the potential
future development of amine/amide-based ligands for producing soluble
silver complexes useful for the separation of olefins from paraffins
