The Impact of Ionic Liquids on Chemical Reactions and Industrial Processes
Keywords:
ionic liquids, chemical reactions, industrial processes, green chemistry, solvents, catalysisAbstract
A class of salts known as ionic liquids (ILs) have recently garnered considerable interest due to their remarkable solvation capabilities, minimal volatility, and excellent thermal stability. All sorts of chemical and industrial processes benefit from the use of ILs due to their many desirable properties. ionic liquids' impact on chemical reactions, particularly their role as sustainable solvents, catalysts, and media. Improvements in selectivity, response rates, and operational sustainability can be achieved with the use of ILs by reducing energy consumption and hazardous waste. Electrochemistry, biomass processing, and catalysis are just a few of the many applications for their versatility in dissolving polar and nonpolar compounds. The article also covers the present research being done to discover ways to improve the performance of ILs in industrial settings, along with the issues that come with them, such as their price, toxicity, and lack of recyclability. Sectioning off the piece, it highlights how ionic liquids are playing a pivotal role in creating more efficient and environmentally friendly chemical processes that could have applications in pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, and renewable energy.
