Abstract
The ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ethylsulfate is used as the absorption solvent and the results are compared to the N,N-dimethylaniline results. A ceramic hollow fibre module is the membrane device where the sulfur dioxide absorption takes place. A gas stream with a typical composition of roasting effluents flows through the shell side and the absorption liquid flows counter currently by the inside of the hollow fibres. The influence of carbon dioxide in the absorption is also evaluated and the overall mass transfer coefficients are calculated. The difference between the estimated mass transfer coefficients and the experimental results for both solvents is discussed assuming partial wetting of the membrane.
