Liquid-Liquid extraction of aromatics and sulfur compounds from base oil using ionic liquids

The viability of using ionic liquids (ILs) as extractive solvents to remove naphthalene (aromatics) and dibenzothiophene (DBT; Sulfur) from base oil by liquid-liquid extraction was investigated. The experiments were designed using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) with 1-butyl-3-methylpyridinium di...
