Abstract
Liquid–liquid equilibrium (LLE) data for the ternary systems {cyclohexane + benzene + 1-ethyl-3-methylpyridinium ethylsulfate}, {cyclohexane + toluene + 1-ethyl-3-methylpyridinium ethylsulfate}, and {cyclohexane + ethylbenzene + 1-ethyl-3-methylpyridinium ethylsulfate} were determined at T = 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure. Selectivity, percent removal of aromatic, and solute distribution ratio, derived from the equilibrium data, were used to determine if this ionic liquid can be used as a potential solvent for the separation of aromatic compounds from cyclohexane. The phase diagrams for the ternary systems are shown, and the tie-lines correlated with NRTL model have been compared with the experimental data.
