Abstract:
Molten salts and ionic liquids are solvents with great potential for carrying out chemical reactions in a more sustainable way regarding e.g. process design, energy consumption, product selectivity, reaction rates, loss of solvent and waste production. The talk will highlight molten salts and ionic liquids already in use or very promising for future sustainable production of bulk chemicals and environmental protection.
Thus, ongoing or future production of bulk chemicals, like sulfuric acid, acetic acid, aldehydes, acid esters, methyl methacrylate and selective absorption of pollutants in industrial off-gases, which are important for the environmental protection and the climate will be addressed.
